I agree with Lynn and Peter on this. I'm having difficulty understanding the
privacy implications of better usability, other than more people would use
the service but then that's the purpose of improved usability.

real step forward. What there is not consensus on is how far or whether such
a look-up could or should be expanded. If is not already clear in the text
