I think we missed coherence in our discussion... On my side I'm really fine 
about Ben applying his change, and in my mind the "pending" module was created 
for that purpose. I replied to Ben on the mailing list saying than I'm fine 
with 
him applying the change:

The only thing is that I don't know to who Ben should talk in order to 
synchronize his work with GeoTools code base.

As a side note: there is no need to write a formal change proposal. They were a 
need for that one or two years ago, at the time we were tied to the GO-1 
specification. But we are not tied anymore to GO-1. Formally, the old OGC 
GeoAPI 
working group has been created and a new one ("GeoAPI SWG 3.0") has been 
created.
