That discussion needs to take place on the mailing list, and
it may be that discussion leads to protocol changes (probably
more common than not), but I think a specification needs to be a
specification.

Anyway, LE is dealing with scaling issues that most of us don't
have to face, and I am unsurprised to see that reflected in
their proposals.  These issues may become more common as certificate
lifetimes continue to shrink and while I tend to (strongly) favor
avoiding complexity, sometimes it can't be avoided and in this case
I'm happy to see proposals that are going to be robust in the
face of changes in the PKI environment.

I support adoption of this document with the protocol proposal
it contains being used as a starting point for specification.
I'm happy to review but personally I don't plan to implement.

Melinda
