The point of a CFA is not to have a document that's nearly ready to publish.

It's to get agreement that a document is an appropriate direction for
the WG to explore, even if it might require substantial work.

As part of that, adoption also cedes change control from the authors to
the WG.

I'd therefore like to leave this in place for now, and request that
reviewers re-examine it bearing the above in mind.
