I've added these to http://www1.tools.ietf.org/author-tools - 
please check that the text works for you.

I don't know of a WG which should vet this - the closest would be the
tools team (which isn't a WG) - but we don't currently have this on our
charter, so as far as I'm concerned, you should just go ahead and publish
when you feel it's stable.

I don't use MS word for draft production myself, so can't comment on the
templates and tools, except that the absolutely most common indication I
have of somebody using MS Word for draft production is the occurrence of
quote characters outside the ascii character range.  But I suspect you've
taken care of that in your post-processing script a long time ago :-)
