This is currently in the rfc-editor's hands (as their plan is to deploy
it on the rfc-editor website).I certainly agree it would be good to deploy it on the rfc-editor web site, but lots of people go to datatracker and tools, so that shouldn't hold up deploying it on the IETF sites.
Deploying it on rfc-editor.org seems fine, but of very little value compared to datatracker and tools. Google, for example, seems to stick to the following ranking when you search "RFC XXXX":
(And indeed, sometimes puts other RFCs before rfc-editor.org, e.g.., https://www.google.com/search?q=rfc+5280)
As an added benefit, datatracker and tools are controlled by the IESG, so the changes can be deployed there without needing to trouble the RFC editor.
