Please trim your replies, especially if replying to a digest!

What you're looking for sounds under-specified and potentially very
complex. I would recommend that you try to implement a freestanding
system that implements all the requirements you have, and only then
consider integrating it in whatever 'standard' you think is appropriate.

At present I don't think you'll find it easy to persuade people this is
something that is sensible to incorporate in some other system.
