It's in an internal review state now before being sent out for wider
review, so there's time to make that sort of a change unless there's some
kind of objection from the community.  I interpret Ned's earlier objections
to touching RFC 6838 as being specific to the issue of top level media
types, but you're talking about something else here.  Hopefully he can
confirm (or correct) my understanding.
