OK, I think the "spelling error" case is a red herring. That's what  
spell checkers are for.

How do we resolve the "clarification" case when it changes the tone  
or suggested approaches of the document? When someone says "this  
follows TEP XXX", which version do they mean?

It sounds like you'd prefer "Stable" to "Final."
