Do anyone recall if there ever was a formal decision on

"No changes are required in existing archival data files in order to 
apply domain dictionaries written in DDLm."

as stated in bold type on

http://www.iucr.org/resources/cif/ddl/ddlm

It might help in avoiding further incorrect assumptions to know
if this is or is not a premise for DDLm and CIF2 development.

I for one think this would be a desirable premise.
