<h3>
Retiring stats objects
</h3>
<p>
At times, it makes sense to retire the definition for a stats object or a stats value.
When this happens, it is not advisable to simply delete it from the spec, since there may
be implementations out there that use it, and it is important that the name is reserved
from re-use for another, incompatible definition.
</p>
<p>
Therefore, retired stats objects are moved to a separate section in this document.
Retired stats objects are moved there in their entirety; retired stats values are moved
to a "partial dictionary".
</p>
<p>
If there is no evidence that the retired object definition has ever been used (such as an
object that is added to the spec and renamed, redefined or removed prior to
implementation), the editors can decide to just remove the object from the spec.
