I think in the context of this bug report, TRT is to do nothing, as we
have the convention that "should" and "must" is the same all over Emacs.
Unless we decide that "should" is generally to be avoided, there is
nothing to do.

My suggestion is to report this as a separate bug.  If we would decide
to do anything, I think it would be most productive to do it in the form
of an amendment to `(elisp) Documentation Tips'.
