RTTI data member names

I apologize for meeting the meeting this morning.
I think it's odd that the RTTI data member names are now considered
non-normative considering that they are public. If they are part of
the interface, they should have well-defined names -- otherwise, they
should be private/protected.
Also, I don't see why the NTBS mangled name (as stored in RTTI data
structures) should have to be in COMDAT. That seems like a good idea
-- but doesn't seem mandatory. From a sample of three compilers,
doing this is rather hard. It's clearly mandatory that the type_info
objects be in COMDAT, but if the NTBS is duplicated, that only costs
space; there's no correctness issue.
Thoughts?
