I think improvements that do replace current text have been
offered already (dkim or xmpp style text wrt maintaining
backwards compatibility) and deficiencies in the current text
have been pointed out (not clearly ceding change control)
that do motivate those improvements. Both suggested
improvements are also based on successful cases where
technologies have been brought into the IETF and one of
those (DKIM) is even closely related to dmarc.

Given that you seem to be asking for what's already been
provided, I'd say we must be close to done on this aspect:-)
