Somehow, we need to tell verifiers what they need to do in order to
implement this specification.  Nobody is saying that verifiers MUST
implement SSP at all, but rather that if they want to implement SSP,
this is how they MUST do it.  Of course, verifiers are free to implement
some other SSP-like thing, even one that acts on SSP records, but I feel
we need to provide some precision in the thing we're calling SSP.
