I think this is a good candidate for recording why we decided not to do
something.

Did we even reach consensus on how to do this? Put a Status: header in
VERSION?

For recording purposes, maybe once the Status: line is added we should
add an additional section. Maybe STATUS, JUSTIFICATION, POSTMORTEM, or
something else, that can just have a one-paragraph explanation, like:


=head1 STATUS

Consensus has been reached that filehandles will be represented as
scalars or objects in scalars (C<$fh>) everywhere. Therefore, there is
no need to make a new type out of them.  This RFC has been withdrawn.
