I have to agree with Joel - but from a different angle.

The "normal process" seems to be that - once an ID is approved at the WG level 
by rough consensus - it goes to the IESG and then to the IETF as a whole.

If (for some reason) it does not gain rough consensus from the IETF as a whole 
(and this seems to be an extreme corner case), then it could be published as an 
individual RFC - but should be kicked back to the WG to make this decision.  

If it was then published as an individual (informational or experimental) RFC - 
that would be effectively because it first ceased to be a WG consensus draft.

This may not be obvious, but it makes more sense than assuming that the WG 
could cause the RFC editor to publish an ID as any kind of a WG consensus RFC 
without IETF concensus...

And yet they are there today and will continue to be.
