SRS details should not be mentioned in an SPF draft.

Apparently you missed my point.  This is not about discussing SRS details 
in the SPF spec.  The point is not to give misleading recommendations.  If 
section 9.3.1.2 suggests the use of localpart crypto schemes, then it 
should not be silent on a serious limitation of that approach with regard 
to the %{l} macro.  Not everyone understands SPF as well as we do, so the 
issue won't be obvious to most readers from the note in section 8.1.
