ietf rfc 3456 4567: open RFC 3456 and RFC 4567 in $EDITOR

ietf rfcextra 3456: open RFC 3456 and any RFCs that update or
obsolete it in $EDITOR, and any errata on any of those in a browser

ietf (tools|tracker) 3456 4567: opens RFC 3456 and RFC 4567 in the
IETF Tools or IETF Datatracker web interface

ietf draft crocker: open all active drafts with "crocker" in their
filename, and lists all matching drafts that are expired, replaced
by other drafts, or have become RFCs
