Answer AB: document _and_ deprecate.  

I'm serious.  I know this is work, but I think we should write these
down somewhere, and say they're deprecated and needn't be implemented.
At least then someone writing a compliant system that gets one of
these types in a query knows what it is supposed to be and that it can
be ignored.

Yes, I am volunteering.  Do you have some pointers that I should go
read, so that I don't have to start all your forensic work from
scratch?
