OK, I see. I support this change. They can always allow it on the other
streams, as detailed below.

Maybe I'm confused about this, or shouldn't have used the term "discuss
criteria" (though [0] contained the term, as well as the section on
"Document Classes Reviewed by the IESG"). However, there are a bunch of
ways for the IESG to block publication of IRTF or Independent Stream
documents given in RFC 5742.
