They are choosing a TLD label that they will decide never to delegate from the root zone, so that people can choose to use it in private namespaces with confidence that it will never collide with a name in the global namespace. >> I am also not sure why an IETF document describing an ICANN decision about >> the namespace would help.

You may be right that would be useful for the IETF to say something about how best to manage internal namespaces in general or internal namespaces anchored under the label ICANN reserves in particular, but I think that is quite separate from ICANN's proposal. The way to do work in the IETF is to discuss it at the IETF, not to ask ICANN to do so.
