On further consideration, I'm with Dave.  Suggest removing the current
language about l= and MIME boundaries, and replace with a note that if you
use l=, added content can change the appearance of a message in hard to
anticipate ways.

Replace the whole section with just that, or only the first paragraph?

Sheesh, you actually want me to read the thing?  Oh, all right.

In 4.4.5, delete "  Signers
   of MIME messages that include a body length count SHOULD be sure that
   the length extends to the closing MIME boundary string."

Also delete the subsequent INFORMATIVE IMPLEMENTATION NOTE.

The note earlier in the section says the bad guy can replace the displayed 
contents, so I don't think we need to say it again.

+1 to three changes above.
