ARRL have *never* made a coherent proposal that included regulation by
bandwidth.  The only time they proposed maximum bandwidths for specific
modes they screwed it up so badly that it languished for several years 
and ARRL withdrew their proposal.

The Commission has never taken a stance on either regulation by
bandwidth or regulation of bandwidth.  Their only (private) statements
is that they are waiting on ARRL to provide a coherent proposal that
represents a consensus among all stake holders.
