End ZAC-3's silence regarding what happens when a ZONE ACTIVATE EXT command processes an OFFLINE zone.

Since nobody can decide whether the Command Duration Limits for writes apply to COALESCING COPY, or is it the limits for reads that apply, eliminate the loose thread before it becomes the means by which the internal-copy house of cards is torn asunder.

Change some wording to clarify changes to zones after a REMOVE ELEMENT AND TRUNCATE command

Change some wording to clarify changes to zones after a REMOVE ELEMENT AND TRUNCATE command

Too much confusion is being generated by the mere mention of the DURABLE/ORDERED WRITE NOTIFICATION subcommand of the NCQ NON-DATA. Since the subcommand definition hasn't been changed in several ACS-x versions and no implementations are clamoring for improvements, the better part of valor here is to obsolete the source of so much disruption.

The aim of this proposal is to clarify the functionality provided by DURABLE/ORDERED WRITE NOTIFICATION, particularly its cache flush capability.
