Where do I miss that provision in 2026, is it something
covered by chapter 9 (variance procedure) ?

Checking the 2026 updates I skipped 3667/3668/3978/3979.

Do 3.4 / 3.5 in 3912 address this "for the case where an
IETF protocol is proposed to be changed or extended in an
unanticipated way that may be harmful to the normal usage
of the protocol, but where the protocol documents do not
explicitly say that this type of extension requires IETF
review" ?  

OTOH 3.4 / 3.5 don't say "MAY start a last call", they're
about attempts to bypass a required "last call", or for
the quoted case.
