lead to endless appeals that a specific action was not covered by the 
document, and would detract from the Ombudsperson's judgement.

So, http://www.ietf.org/iesg/statement.html says

  These messages represent the IESG's best effort to deal with specific
  issues that have come up from time to time and are not meant to be a
  way for the IESG to revise the established IETF processes. If at any
  time someone feels that one or more of these messages represents a 
  misunderstanding of the intent of the relevant RFCs the issue should 
  be taken to the IESG mailing list for discussion.

It seems to me the "IETF Anti-Harassment Policy" should have a relevant
RFC and not remain an IESG Statement and accordingly should be included
in the document. Particularily so objections to the text of the policy
can go through the IETF process, rather than being ignored.
