Leslie asked for comments from uninvolved parties and I'm giving my personal opinion that I would not find this work useful. If others do, we should go charter it.
I think it will be useful, if it succeeds in rigorously defining metrics for upper layer protocols, given their dependencies on the metrics for lower layer protocols. The context is how to write meaningful service level agreements for application level services, which require well-defined and reproducible metrics.
