It’s possible to add a column in the IANA registry, but it is not possible to capture the information from 8247 in such a table. 

RFC 8247 has “MAY” and “SHOULD+” labels, but it also has comments and a bunch of explanation, such as that some algorithm is a SHOULD for IoT, but not otherwise. I think it’s better to point people at the RFC where the information is, rather than post very partial information in an IANA table.
