It seems to me that there four somewhat distinct questions:

1. Code points
2. Document level (Info, Exp, PS, etc.)
3. Recommended status
4. WG status

>From my perspective, you have code points and you've asked for an
Informational document, but than can only get you Not Recommended, so
what's the value of having this be a WG document? Why can't you submit it
to the ISE or alternately just have people reference the draft?
