I was thinking more informational.  Actually I'm not too fussed over what
category it's in, as long as it gets out of its current limbo.

It was put on hold so as not to interfere with the TLS 1.3 process (and then
admittedly I forgot to un-hold it afterwards).  It seems like you're saying
that doing what the WG requested now makes it ineligible for consideration by
the WG.

Another point is that it's been around for eight years, it's not like people
haven't had more than enough opportunity to comment on it and suggest changes
in that time.  The current late-to-the-party response seems to be mostly a
chorus of "I haven't read it but I know I don't like it".
