A wiki would naturally dismiss a PUT without the corresponding nonce as 
invalid, and thus no problem.  (There's still the question of how the 
nonce should be sent back to the client; there's no facility for it 
right now.)

Some other CMSs would not.

I think a SHOULD is in order, since nothing really breaks if it's not 
required; however a MUST would mean that it would be an inconvinience to 
many.
