Section 2.2 says:

2.2. Formal Definition

   The URI scheme's keywords specified in the following syntax
   description are case-insensitive.  The syntax of an "sms" URI is
   formally described as follows, where the URI base syntax is taken
   from [RFC3986]:

  sms-uri        = scheme ":" sms-hier-part [ "?" sms-fields ]
  scheme         = "sms"
  sms-hier-part  = sms-recipient *( "," sms-recipient )
  sms-recipient  = telephone-subscriber ; defined in RFC 3966
  sms-fields     = sms-field *( "&" sms-field )
  sms-field      = sms-field-name "=" escaped-value
  sms-field-name = "body" / sms-field-ext ; "body" MUST only appear once
  sms-field-ext  = 1*( unreserved )
  escaped-value  = *( unreserved / pct-encoded ) ; defined in RFC 3986

It should say:

  sms-fields     = no-body / body-first / body-middle-last
  no-body        = sms-field *( "&" sms-field )  
                   ; <sms-fields> part without the "body" field
  body-first     = body-field *( "&" sms-field )
                   ; <sms-fields> part with the "body" field  
                   ; at the first place
  body-middle-last = sms-field *( "&" sms-field ) "&" body-field
                   *( "&" sms-field )
                   ; <sms-fields> part with the "body" field  
                   ; in the middle or at the end
  sms-field      = sms-field-name "=" escaped-value
  body-field     = "body=" escaped-value
  sms-field-name = 1*( unreserved )
  escaped-value  = *( unreserved / pct-encoded )  ; defined in RFC 3986

Notes:

The syntax I propose represents that "body" field can occur in the URI only once while the current one does not reveal this.
