My understanding is that we wanted to set a high bar because this really 
ought to happen with lots of care and review.

The related ticket is 
<http://trac.tools.ietf.org/wg/httpbis/trac/ticket/188>, and it was 
discussed during IETF 75 
(<http://tools.ietf.org/wg/httpbis/minutes?item=minutes75.html>).
