Default Engrish Proficiency ;)

Has anyone been able to get the FAA web site to issue you a temporary
certificate with the new required ICOA wording of "English Proficient"
on it? I asked for a verification of priv as well as a temporary
certificate and selected my reason as the "English Proficiency". I
quickly got both in email but the official temporary that came from
the FAA doesn't say anything about English Proficiency. I've since
requested a new card be mailed to me, hopefully that will work better
than the email version. I called AOPA and the info they have is very
limited.

So, could it be that the emailed version doesn't contain the required
wording but the snail-mail version will? Will I get into an argument
with a Mexican official that I don't have English Proficiency?
It's irritating that this is happening so fast. We just found out
about it, it goes into affect in a week and it takes 2 weeks to get a
new certificate (at best). The FAA at its finest?
