I have no objection to the publication of this document, and just two
small issues you could look at as you progress the document.

---

Section 3 is titled "Flag Bits: A Recommendation" however, the text is
clear in its use of "MUST" and this a Standards Track document.

I think you should change the title to "Flag Bits: New Processing Rules"

Furthermore, in Section 1, you should not refer to this as a 
recommendation.

---

In Section 4 you have text referring to ff1 such as:

   X and Y may each be set to 0 or 1.

... but no indication as to how or why these bits might be set. Are they
or some specific use? Are they reserved like the r bits in ff2?

Adding some clue or reference would be good.

-- Section 4.1.1 --

  X and Y may each be set to 0 or 1.

What does this addition mean?  What, specifically, is the change it's making?  I'd like to know the answer; more importantly, I think the document needs to be clear about it.  (And the same goes for the similar lines in Sections 4.2.1 and 4.2.2.)
