Well, I don't claim to speak for the whole IETF community, but this is 
certainly something I support.

No one is claiming that someone is going to edit the RFC and claim to 
have a new, better RFC (without going through the RFC update/errata 
process), and the grant in question specifically disclaims anyone's 
right to do that.

But, particularly for a document like this, which is defining a codec 
mapping, I would hope that people would be free to borrow this text for 
future mappings: either of Opus into another container or another codec 
into Ogg, or even something totally unrelated to either if it applies.
