We should take care to remember this - SPF is only the framework and
imposes no policy on the MTA owner

I agree and this is why it is very important that the future RFC does
not mandate a policy (such as saying you SHOULD end the record with
-all).

That's actually a problem. It would be helpful if the spec would either
say that you SHOULD, or say that you SHOULD NOT. As it is, some people
do it and others don't when they're in fact in precisely the same
situation.
