Models: updating DIT Content Rules



If a structural object class exists without a DIT content rule, and entries of that structural object class exist in the DIT, what are the rules for later adding a DIT content rule for that structural object class? The same issue exists for updates to existing DIT content rules.
 
Obviously, a DIT content rule which would invalidate existing entries could/should not be added. This could happen due to the addition of MUST or NOT attributes or removing AUX classes, or adding AUX classes which have MUSTs that are already in the NOT list.. Should there be language along the lines of "A DIT content rule SHALL NOT be added or updated in a way that would invalidate existing entries"?
