Looks like the final text is in fact not that bad. In particular, Amendent 7 clarifies that authorized pen-testing is legal, and Amendment 22 strikes the "possession" of tools/devices and adds "for the clear purpose of committing any of the offences". So you're allowed to have a copy of Metasploit, but pointing it someplace you don't have permission is still strictly forbidden. Sanity wins, at least this time. ;)
