We discussed this topic at #89 IETF:
http://www.ietf.org/proceedings/89/minutes/minutes-89-mmusic#h.caj5s2i38ck0

The algorithm as such is not, to best of my knowledge, contentious, but 
making it something mandatory to follow was considered a bad idea.

As individual, I think one (RFC 2119) MAY/OPTIONAL default algorithm 
would make sense, but having it as MUST would not be a good idea.
