Re: tracking-ISSUE-271: out of band consent and specified purpose [TCS Last Call]

The Compliance document already has a section explaining requirements for consent (which might be registered in-band or out-of-band). See Section 4:
> A party MAY engage in practices otherwise proscribed by this specification when the user has given explicit and informed consent.

That already provides the conditions of explicit and informed for consent. As noted in Section 3.1, consent may be limited based on statements to the user in obtaining consent. Those statements might include particular purposes, but they might include any other number of restrictions, which we don't need to enumerate in the specification.

Proposal: no change.
