I also agree. At the relevant time (which is not now), I reckon
the WG should consider whether some form(s) of padding are worth
including or not. And also what kind of guidance to offer about
side-channels, which is arguably a different threat.

But the problem statement I think should note the potential to
re-identify based on at least sets of queries seen with today's
DNS. Whether those are down to opening all bookmarks as tabs in
one go, or due to re-boot behaviour, I'd say there's a strong
enough fingerprint there that the problem statement should not
be silent on the topic.
