Even a small delay in finishing the draft is unacceptable.   If it would 
take a long time to get consensus on an option draft, it would take at 
least as long to get the same consensus for the same language in the DHCPv6 
draft.   There is no chance at all that carelessly sticking additional 
option definitions into the DHCPv6 draft will speed the finalization of 
such options, and there is no chance that doing so would not slow the 
DHCPv6 draft.   I say this based on a fair number of years of experience 
with this process.
