Two problems with that:

    * The ERRATUM will likely be rejected, because the restriction was
      intentional.

    * This is the obvious part of how to use "oob public key" with
      DANE, and need hardly be explained.  The non-obvious part is the
      need to only signal "oob public key" support in the client
      when server's TLSA RRs contain *only* "DANE-EE(3) SPKI(1) ?"
      records.  I'll leave to the authors of that draft to decide
      whether that should be explained in their draft, or in a
      suitable separate DANE WG document.
