I'm also in agreement with Dirk, though I won't go as far as Ben.  "a
few records" doesn't capture the potential effects.  At the time, these
are 'potential' effects.  Based on lackluster response to my tech-talk
mail, I think the reasonable course of action is to add new restrictions
as warnings.  These would remain warnings for some years to give sites
an opportunity to notice them and request changes.  I would then lean
towards loosening restrictions to avoid orphaning whole sites from
future updates.

So I begin with:
