Several times. It's been debated if unconfirmed transactions are
necessary, methods of doing more private filtering have been suggested,
along with simply not filtering unconfirmed transactions at all. My
collected data suggests that there is very little use of BIP37 at
present, based on incoming connections to nodes I know end up in the DNS
seed responses (no "SPV" clients do their own peer management).

I'm not sure if this has been brought up elsewhere in this thread.
This proposal doesn't seem to be a complete replacement of BIP37: It
doesn't provide a filter for unconfirmed transactions like BIP37 does.
That means that most light clients will continue to use BIP37 even if
they may use this BIP as a supplement. Otherwise users would not get
timely notification of incoming payments any more.

Hi y'all,
Alex Akselrod and I would like to propose a new light client BIP for
consideration:
