For l=, a MAY for signers produces a MUST for verifiers.

Why is that necessarily the case?

If a signer bases their signature on use of an l= value, then the 
signature will fail if the verifier does not implement it.

That was kind of my point.  And I think that's OK, since even though my 
verifiers do implement it, local policy in the assessor agent could 
disregard its validation anyway.
