I think the working group chairs should ask IANA to fix the registry. It is clearly an oversight that the IANA considerations of RFC 5761 didn't ask IANA to make the changes at the time, and that RFC is very clear what payload types need to be reserved, so I'd expect IANA to be willing to do this without needing an additional RFC.

If not, I'm happy to file an errata statement on the IANA considerations of RFC 5761.
