After a discussion with Mike Patrick,

docsQosServiceFlowPolicedDropPkts was not meant to count for any reason a packet was dropped after being classified to a service flow.
It is meant to count only packets dropped to rate policing. Thus the text has been changed again to meet these original requirements.
There was too much ambiguity to the previous description.

docsQosServiceFlowPolicedDropPkts OBJECT-TYPE
    SYNTAX          Counter32
    MAX-ACCESS      read-only
    STATUS          current
    DESCRIPTION    "The number of Packet Data PDUs classified to this
                    service flow dropped due to:
	               (1) implementation-dependent excessive delay while
	                   enforcing the Maximum Sustained Traffic Rate; or
		       (2) UGS packets dropped due to exceeding the 
	                   Unsolicited Grant Size with a Request/Transmission
	                   policy that require such packets to be dropped.
		    Classified packets dropped due to other reasons must be
	            counted in ifOutDiscards for interface of this 
	            service flow."
    ::= { docsQosServiceFlowStatsEntry 6 }

docsQosServiceFlowPolicedDelayPkts OBJECT-TYPE
    SYNTAX          Counter32
    MAX-ACCESS      read-only
    STATUS          current
    DESCRIPTION    "This object counts only packets delayed in order to 
		    maintain the Maximum Sustained Traffic Rate. This object 
	            will always report a value of 0 for UGS flows because the
		    Maximum Sustained Traffic Rate does not apply."	
    ::= { docsQosServiceFlowStatsEntry 7 }

The QoS MIB will be submitted tonight at Midnight i.e. Feb 1, 2003. Any further discussion of this issue can be raised at the interim Working Group Meeting
