I definitely support this change.
Based on the last 2 sipit events, there were still quite a few 
implementations with improper line terminators. Each time we pointed out 
the requirement that "senders MUST terminate lines with CRLF", they used 
the argument that "receivers MUST also interpret CR and LF by themselves as 
line terminators"...
No big deal really but this makes the spec more 'authoritative'.
