Hi Paul,

Even then, ideally there should have been some words to indicate that the <field-name>s used as extensions for trace be disjoint from those used as non-trace extension headers.

It gets more ugly when we start to extends <optional-field> syntactically via =/. Now, when the syntax is evaluated the new header fields we are defining show up as explicitly syntactically valid in both places. :-(

In the erratum for RFC 5536, a sentence may be added to say that news header fields defined by this document are not trace header fields, in the terminology of RFC 5322.
