Once we get EAI wound down or suspended, I want to have a
discussion with the ADs (and maybe the IAB, who have expressed
interest in the past) about re-doing RFC 3696 and/or 4084 to
reflect a whole series of things that either weren't handled
well the first time or need updating to reflect i18n (among
other things).  I'd be delighted to retire to junior author if
someone else is interested in what I think is the right place to
discuss advice about funky characters in mail and how careful
one needs to be if one is going to transform things from one set
of syntax conventions to another one.

Consider that both an offer and, for people who like putting
their names on RFCs, a bribe.
