Section 4.4 of RFC 3676 says:

   On generation, any unquoted lines which start with ">", and any lines
   which start with a space or "From " MUST be space-stuffed.  Other
   lines MAY be space-stuffed as desired.

What does "as desired" mean?  If lines are treated at random, it is obviously
impossible to tell stuffed spaces from original indentation.

I think it should say that indented lines MUST also be space-stuffed.
