I avoided an explicit framework because the intent is that this WG
be able to work on performance metric proposals both above
and below IP (if it continues beyond this initial charter).

For example, the latest version of  draft-xie-ccamp-lsp-dppm-
is a proposal on control plane performance below IP.
PMOL might be looking at that in a year or so, if it's successful.

In one sentence, this WG might cover vetted work that the other
charters don't, but perhaps that's too broad and blunt.
