This highlights an interesting issue as an RFC goes from PS to IS.  I would 
offer that most SHOULDs in a document will, if there are real implementations 
out there, migrate to MUST or MUST NOT.

I think you are speaking of long term operations where an SHOULD is so widely 
adopted, it inherently because a MUST have in all new implementations.  So 
that vain, sure, eventually the better options naturally become part of the 
protocol to the extent the options might be even remove to simplify things.  
We also have the opposite where a SHOULD is implemented but no one users it 
so eventually, it may be remove as an option.
