The last part of the last sentence here, "i.e., an agent NEED NOT
implement them, even if the device supports the functionality
represented by the reason and is available to the agent", is
pratically encouraging implementors NOT to implement the job state
reasons. Why not just say "they're optional", PERIOD? I suggest the
wording be shortened to,
"Implementation of these values is OPTIONAL."
for both JMP and IPP.
