I support adoption of this document as long as the WG version does not list current implementations by name. As Mike StJohns points out, listing current methods in a long-lived RFC has significant problems, and it doesn't help the future reader decide what they want to do. It is still fine to call this a "survey".

I would also like to see a more specific proposal at the top of the document (_name and TXT) instead of making the reader wade through the survey.
