What happens when section 0 is removed?  Does the RFC editor take 
responsibility for repaginating the text and updating the table of 
contents?

(We're talking here about the AUTHINFO capabilities line.)

I'm not sure I agree with this change.  Perhaps the user would like to 
be notified of new AUTHINFO methods.  Regardless, this is a user 
interface issue and not a protocol issue, so I'm skeptical of the 
appropriateness of dictating it.
