The very notion of "adoption" of a draft by the IETF (or at least by a 
working group) is a Bad Idea, as it tends to indicate an assumed 
direction for the WG that isn't yet reflected by a deep understanding of 
the draft or its implications, and makes it harder for a WG to change 
direction.     WGs should be able to entertain alternate proposals at 
any time prior to a post-WGLC consensus, without any built-in 
presumption that some particular draft will be the basis for the 
eventual solution.

So no, please don't do this.
