A few years ago, Eric from Google and I worked up the subject
proposal.  We never finished it, and the draft got dropped.  I'm
proposing reviving it here; will folks please take a look and
comment?:

https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-leiba-extra-specialuse-important/

Google's server already implements this, and has since we originally
made the proposal, I believe.

The draft also creates the necessary IANA registry for special-use attributes.
