    ..it Sure Would Be Nice if some of the people who have been
    exposed to things like this sat down and wrote a few
    Informational RFCs *documenting* some of this folklore.  One of
    the most infuriating things about implementing some of the
    Internet protocols is running across these bits of important
    information that aren't written down *anywhere*, apparently on
    the assumption that anyone who needs to know them already does.

Well, the "Host Requirments" RFCs documented some of it, and tried to
legislate the rest of it out of existancs.  Unfortunately, that doesn't
seem to have worked.
