Also, I think this requirement makes [RFC5804] Normative.

And finally, why is this not a MUST? Making a SHOULD level requirement seems
a bit weak in this case.

Is it normative even without the MUST (i.e. if I leave it as RECOMMENDED)?

Yes.

In the case of a MUST, it means that a valid includes implementation
imposes a script naming restriction. If a site isn't using
managesieve, would that site really need to accept the name
restrictions?

If you don't make it a MUST, then nobody can be relied upon the rule.

I'm comfortable either way.
