There is a "Pseudo WG" with a proper mailing list, ietf-smtp at imc.org
( see http://www.imc.org/ietf-smtp/ ).

That list has been used for the development of RFC 5321 and it is
going to be used for the desired Full Standard successor of it,
and there also is a well-renowned pseudo-chair ...

I suggest to redirect the discussion to than list, as indeed
it is a matter of the SMTP client (MTA) looking up MX records,
how to deal with the outcome returned from the resolver library.

Last year, there have been long discussions on MX to {A|AAAA}
fallback, and so I expect that the idea most likely will not be
received with much enthusiasm ...

Kind regards,
  Alfred Hönes.
