I consider DHCPv4 one of the most-used protocols that will stay for a long time 
with us, because it's not directly affected by what happens on the global 
internet.
I can even imagine whole "islands" staying on IPv4 and using it for many 
decades.
Assuming IPv4 is declared as historic, does this mean that no other options are 
expected to be defined for DHCP?
Do we assume that any new applications won't need those?

Maybe a note should be added about the exclusion of creating new options for 
such cases. So the actual protocol standard won't see any development, but 
protocol "extensions" through standard-defined options may happen.
