If I can summarise your changes as I see them:

1. You want to clarify that if a PA allocation is returned for some 
reason, then the associated certificate is revoked but that the manner 
of doing this is outside of scope
2. You wish to clarify that certificates won't be arbitrarily revoked
3. You make a point about certificates being reissued after a dispute to 
represent the resolution of the dispute.
I think that 1. could be usefully addressed, although it may seem a bit 
self evident. 3. is a valid point, but I think it is important not to go 
too deeply into the operational details in this proposal. Likewise I 
feel that 2. is adequately covered by the policy as currently stated.
Thoughts anyone?
