I agree; that's why it's called an RFC and not something else. :)

The port 70 discussion started because someone forwarded their port 70
internet to a different port on LAN? My idea about this, is that it is
never a good idea to run a service on a different internal port than
it's external port. This because it's a definite way to show
difficulties like the one being discussed now. A rather pointless
discussion anyway, imho. :)
