"Aha, I see the source of confusion. I think the first sentence of Section 5.1
is better written as follows:
When the connecting application is an interactive client,
construction of the reference identifier SHOULD be based on the
source domain and service type provided by a human user (e.g. when
specifying the server portion of the user's account name on the
server or when explicitly configuring the client to connect to a
particular host or URI as in [SIP-LOC]) and SHOULD NOT be based on a
target domain derived from the user inputs in an automated fashion
(e.g., a host name or domain name discovered through DNS resolution
of the source domain).
We want to make sure that the reference identifier is based on the source
(user-provided) domain, not the target (automatically-derived) domain, except
perhaps in several well-defined and carefully-limited scenarios.

[BA] IMHO, this text is much clearer. Thanks!
