Just more thoughts, trying to spot loopholes, etc... :-)
The formatting got mangled. The format was
The proposal is foo if EITHER A) condition 1 OR B) condition 2 UNLESS some other condition
The indentation should make it clear that the EITHER and UNLESS wrap the two choices. If you have a better idea of how to "insert parentheses" then let me know.
Ah, thought so :-)

Nice.
Yeah, I don't have any better suggestion really, and apart from my general dislike for using whitespace to provide meaning (a la python) it's pretty clear to me.
I do like to separate words by a space and paragraphs by a blank line. It makes text easier to read and understand. ;) It's nice to see this getting some development now, but I think we should make a final revision soon, so this doesn't end up in endless discussion. It doesn't need to be perfect. Making it better than it was is good too.
