Given that many use cases for the Authentication-Results header are also
only for informational purposes, we should ensure that "neutral" and
"none" are still differentiated.  This spec doesn't (and MUST NOT)
dictate actions to be taken based on the information.

I suspect we're mostly agreeing, just wanted to make sure.
