so does a well-written set of constraints in the charter.  that's why 
they are commonly provided.

the current text was written with quite a bit of thought; at this point 
i've no idea how many working group charters i've/we've written, but a 
fair number have been based on importing existing technology. (i didn't 
write the charter, but i happened to be the area director with oversight 
for initially bringing nfs into the ietf.)

no doubt the current draft needs improving.  so please offer 
improvements rather than replacements or explain the inherent 
deficiencies in the current text.
