As I see it, that's not the question here. The question is: Should there be 
an RFC that can be used/misused to apply pressure regarding trace fields etc?

Yes, I agree that this is what we are discussing.   I think it's pretty clear 
that for Received header fields that refer to the IP address of the end-user, 
the answer is "yes, there should be such an RFC."   I haven't heard anyone 
seriously propose that this is not true, although I'd be interested to hear 
such an argument!
