Well... Totally bikeshedding on this issue...
I'll claim it very much is NOT another reason for the IETF to treat this as an experiment. (In effect, that would expand the scope of concern for the IETF, which exactly what we should avoid, wrt this realm.)
Some idea of the overall UX direction is important to the IETF effort because it's possible we've specified the wrong underlying mechanism. (Or more likely, we need to specify some additional stuff.) This doesn't mean we should standardize any of it. Ned -- last-call mailing list last-call@xxxxxxxx https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/last-call
