looks like we have to do more chit chat how this advise shall be applied. please
read my consideration at ldraw's PT:

http://www.ldraw.org/cgi-bin/ptdetail.cgi?f=parts/s/3629pw2a.dat

to avoid further confusion I'm in favor to work out a general note which could
be used by the reviewers to tag old parts with subfiled dithered colors.
