We can do both (provide it as defined and in one section). But someone needs to prepare all the ABNFs first.

Personally, I think grouping the related options in the document might make it more clear instead of grouping it based on a concept and then the next style of flow. It might also help shine light on the holes in the spec or where things are ambiguous or not clearly defined. (ie. clearly defining all the options for a particular URI together instead of having to jump over multiple sections and mentally comparing each option).

I don't have the time to prepare such text. Can someone volunteer to submit this text to the WG for review? EH
