I think there is a slight misunderstanding here about the document status and 
IANA registration.
The EPP extension registry has 2 types of registrations:
(see https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/rfc7451/ 
<https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/rfc7451/>)

1. EPP standard track registrations:
These extensions have had thorough review and have consensus that these are 
standard extensions.
These EPP extensions will point to the IESG in the IANA registry (RFC 7451 
section 2.2.1)

2. Proprietary EPP extensions
Extensions that seek registration in the IANA EPP extensions registry, but are 
only supported by one or few registries.
These extensions should be documented and one way of documenting them is to 
write an informational RFC describing how the proprietary extension works.
These EPP extensions will have the Registrant information in the IANA registry, 
which is NOT the IESG!

draft-ietf-regext-bundling-registration is of type 2 since the REGEXT WG could 
not reach consensus that this extension should become the standard way of 
bundling. Hence the informational status of the document and the Registrant 
should be in the IANA registration as mandated by RFC 7451.
