With respect to the question of proposed standard. What changes if the 
requested status is informational?
I think just get rid of the normative language - SHOULDs, MUSTs, etc.
 From the perspective of giving guidance to people implementing these RRTypes, 
it seems to me that the normative language is useful, perhaps even necessary, 
to ensure interoperability.

I admit I have not done my homework here; is the suggestion that the 2119 
normative language cannot (MUST NOT? :-) appear in an informational document?

2119 language is intended to describe requirements of standards-track documents. Informational documents cannot impose requirements.
