[E-trademarks] Recording assignment with redactions

[David Boundy]

Redact away as liberally as you like.  Select pages.  Black out all but the
transfer itself.  Remember that recordation is only about notice, it's not
the legally effective transfer.  That's why the short form recordation
works.   There's nothing different here.
