Aren't you forgetting the users in all this thread?
Shouldn't users be able to get the DNS data clean from the actual authoritative servers or caching servers getting the information from there? rather than a who-knows-what-is-in-there zone served by a server which I can't verify? If DNSSEC were deployed now at the root, problems would be less, but right now, I would rather be able to get info from the list of authoritative servers. Yes, I know about man in the middle, still, I would rather that not be my ISP.

I don't know. What is the opinion of the group? And of our beloved
chairs? Any example of a WCP already existing in the IETF?

A WCP is just a BCP with a different title, surely. And there are plenty of examples of RFCs (whether published as BCP or not) suggesting that things should not be done:

And a volunteer to write one?

I have no problem putting fingers to keyboard if there seems at least some interest in the result.
