+1 !
That is what UTA does to 'security' RFCs in majority of cases, BTW.

This seems to me to be clearly "updating" or "profiling" RFC6125 normative
language, in the specific email use case.

Profiling it for email, yes. Why should that make it *update* the
document that specifies the general process? Profiles need to
normatively reference what they profile, but not the other way 'round.
