[ppml] Wording issues with the 2002-6 Aggregation Requests Proposal???

[John M. Brown]

as long as we don't get to do laundry with this policy.

I'd like to see there be language that removes the ability
to exchange blocks because the are "dirty" or blacklisted.

If the lang is not specifically in there, then people will
use the loop-hole.
