I am, but I think not all of security-team are.
Not sure about current policies which list to use for what.

Unfortunately our last two meetings were only sparsely visisted - I did
bring up the issue, but there is no outcome except that we should keep
it on our agenda.

I'm not accustomed enough with the release cycle for fedora, but I'd
guess this would be a system-wide change, which had a deadline for
2016-02-02. [1]
Maybe we should talk to the fedora-engineering people if this change
would be acceptable?

Also I do not know how big the required changes would be, did you
already try to implement this change?
