As I tried to explain in my message last night and elsewhere, the directive as originally designed
would not be a good fit for "editions", which implies progression in some definite
direction; it would need something more like "flavours" of the language, equally valid but
supporting different styles.
Adding it to "editions" would just be a means to the end of removing the option, but
it's not clear that the case for doing that is any stronger than it was 5 years ago.
