Discussed during the 12/14/2005 teleconference.

Consensus on the call is to add an implementation note stating that servers
should be aware that a copy depth infinity of /A/ into /A/B/ can lead to
infinite recursion if not handled. Servers that handle this incorrectly might
find that this can be used as a denial of service attack on the server.

Assigning to Lisa to add text to the specification on this.
