as evidenced by RFC 8484, the web community seems to regret basing

this may mean that offering them something like "HTTP RR" which can't
work better than SRV or URI already works, because they speciously
refuse to embrace these working technologies, will buy you nothing.
Members of both communities had what I felt was a very productive side
meeting during the Montreal IETF, at which I also believe there was an
acceptance that both "sides" need to come together for a mutually
agreeable solution.
I don't think that either SRV or URI are usable for the primary use
case, i.e. allowing a domain owner to put a record at the apex of
their zone that points at the hostname of the web provider they want to
use. I personally don't think that ANAME is a good solution either.
Hence my draft which I hope is a move towards that middle ground that we
can all work with. I have already had positive feedback from some HTTP
people, but antagonising them won't help.
