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. john [1] https://datatracker.ietf.org/wg/newtrk/about/
