As the documents are becoming more mature, the amount of protocol-level changes is going down. Would it make sense to start disconnecting the protocol versions ([ALPN](https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-quic-http-23#section-3.1) `h3-23`, [transport version](https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-quic-transport-23#section-15) `0xff000017`) from the draft numbers (i.e. `draft-ietf-quic-http-23`, `draft-ietf-quic-transport-23`)?

This correlation caused a few headaches in the final stages of TLS 1.3 standardization, it would be nice not to repeat that here.

(This was discussed a while back, and is not my idea, but is now the right time?)
