With my Designated Expert hat on and co-chair hat off, a procedural point
here:

The IANA registry for these is Expert Review, which means you don't have to
publish an RFC to get it registered.  You can, but it's not necessary if
your registration request can sufficiently describe what you're doing.  See
RFC8601 Section 6.2, fourth paragraph.
