Accidental. But I'm not sure it's worth trying to change.

So that it can be published as a separate document for "ordinary" users
to read.

Will check, but this is just what gets automatically generated from the
DocBook XML. Maybe there's something in the StyleSheets that can be
tweaked. (But it's hell trying to understand them.)

The only place anything should show is in the HTML version. (I couldn't
get any other rendering to pay attention to the markup.) There *is* one
paragraph, at the start of section 1.1 of the main spec, which is marked
as "changed". In my browser, it renders with a green background.

I would have thought that the canonical place in ietf.org would be
better, wouldn't it?

Yes, thanks.
