  Why is this going for Experimental instead of PS?


Section 3.1., paragraph 7:
>    would be the same as if other syntacticly valid but semantically

  Nit: s/syntacticly/syntactically/


Section 3.4., paragraph 1:
>    "LIST-EXTENEDED" [RFC5258] capability, the server MUST support the

  Nit: s/"LIST-EXTENEDED"/"LIST-EXTENDED"/

David Black suggested in GenArt review:

While not strictly a security consideration, it would be useful for
section 11 to point out the potential for user confusion caused by
SEARCH command match strings that have different UTF-8 representations
but display identically or similarly (strings that look like they
should match don't).


Barry Leiba suggested:

   The UTF8=ONLY capability implies the UTF8 base capability, the
   UTF8=ALL capability and the UTF8=APPEND capability.  A server which
   advertises UTF8=ONLY need not advertise the three implicit
   capabilities.

Oy.  This makes parsing the capability string complicated, and should
be earlier in the document.  It'd be good to make this clear at the
beginning, when the UTF8 capability is first mentioned.

Nit at the level of an observation:
Would be bice if the first section in the document was the Introduction, and if the Introduction was a little less terse.
