I am strongly in support of the WG adopting this draft.  It will allow
applications to deliver a better developer experience and higher security.

As Ted notes, there is a possibility of breakage.  If something on a host
is relying on an external resolver to provide localhost resolution in
accordance with RFC 6761.  However, that behavior is almost certainly not
secure to start with, so this breakage is of the good, "increasing
security" kind.
