What I'm missing is the reason this has to change. Obviously someone
made lots of noise about it and the current model is inadequate for
whomever needs.

Before jumping through loops to understand what which lawyer from
where wanted to do with this information, maybe it would be helpful to
outline the bird's eye sepcification? All I currently see is a
mountain of bureaucracy falling on us. Some background information can
make us understand the need and perhaps even heöp us make better
counter suggestions.
