I don't recall seeing an IPR disclosure on a BCP.  Most new 
Informational RFCs are also consensus documents.  There are a few 
Informational RFCs which lists requirements for operation and 
administration.  I don't think that this document should be BCP as 
the status does not exercise the "must demonstrate at least two 
independent, separate and successful uses of the licensing process".
