Review result: Ready with Issues

This document has been reviewed as part of the transport area review team's
ongoing effort to review key IETF documents. These comments were written
primarily for the transport area directors, but are copied to the document's
authors and WG to allow them to address any issues raised and also to the IETF
discussion list for information.

When done at the time of IETF Last Call, the authors should consider this
review as part of the last-call comments they receive. Please always CC

I found an issue that appear that it needs clarification. So this document has
this statement:

   In this model, the zone identifier is considered independently of the
   IPv6 address itself.  However, this does not in itself resolve the
   difficulties in considering the zone identifier as part of the HTTP
   origin model [RFC6454].  Therefore, this approach does not resolve
   the issue of how browsers should support link-local addresses,
   discussed further in [I-D.schinazi-httpbis-link-local-uri-bcp].
   Because of this, the recommendations and normative statements in this
   document do not apply to web browsers.

After having read [I-D.schinazi-httpbis-link-local-uri-bcp] I think there are a
generic issue for an URI using protocol that uses URI's in the UI, even if it
primarily have been discussed in the context of web browsers. In those cases
one still will struggle with including a method for specifying the zone
identifier. So should this aspect be clarified in this document that it is
desirable for any URI application to find a way to enter the zone ID but that
if the place to add it would be the URI then one would end up in the same
problem as with the obsoleting of RFC 6874 there are now also no specification
for how zone ID are included in URI, even if they are only input usage only and
do not make sense to include in inside the protocol.
