I think we're all agreed on that.  Based on the discussion, I'll leave it to
the editors to pick appropriate words to reflect our rough consensus that
private use tags and subtags should remain in the document, but there should
be a "health warning" regarding the risks associated with using them.  Several
alternative wordings have been offered, and I think the feedback on the mailing
list will provide sufficient guidance to the editors to form text we can live
with.

With that, I'll mark this issue resolved.  If someone finds the words they
choose unacceptable, we can re-open the issue.
