It turns out to be not quite that easy, especially if one tries
to avoid making other significant changes.  This is, however,
exactly the territory that NEWTRK [1] starting about 2004 and
running through 2006 or so, with periodic attempts to restart or
build on that work.

While I believe that, after nearly 15 years, it is time to look
at these questions again, I don't believe anyone who was heavily
involved in that original effort would recommend initiating a
follow-up effort (or a completely new one with similar goals)
unless it was clear that the IESG was prepared to accept and
process whatever conclusions and consensus that WG managed to
reach.

Happy reading.
