If it needs to be said, I'm +1 on this.

I don't think we need a separate WG on this -- it's relatively simple (and should stay that way). The important thing is to get momentum behind a single way to do it. APPAWG can accomplish that easily (and if it gets any harder, I'd recommend that the authors go Informational).

Cheers,

I've discussed this briefly with Mark Nottingham, Pete Resnick and Peter Saint-Andre, and consensus seems to be to raise this with APPSAWG and see if there's any interest in developing this on a standards track.
