And how are numbered lists a problem?

I thought it was a pain because I got comments referring to <x> and the file I edited contained no <x>. xml2rfc generated numbers, people used them to me, I didn't see them in the source.

In general I think the RFC format should use author-visible numbers in the cases where those numbers are used in email, and might benefit from being unchanged in the next revision of the RFC: Sections, list items. Not references, people don't often refer to those by number in email.
