I guess the answer is it depends on the authors ? in this case this really happened and the one Gnupg developer forked the openpgp crypto-refresh draft (now rfc 9580) including squatting on a code point allocation with their own:

https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-koch-librepgp/" dir="ltr" width="300">

https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-koch-librepgp/">LibrePGP Message Format https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-koch-librepgp/">datatracker.ietf.org https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-koch-librepgp/">

it is outside the openpgp charter so i don't know what will happen. Will the ISE take it on? will it remain a draft? The author hasn't contacted the ietf since publication so it seems their end goal for now was publishing the draft as a stable reference for their flavour of pgp.

if they pick this up in five years, is it ietf's fault this "took forever" ?

is this what falls under your term of "blocked" ?
