Just realized this concern did not get attention:

Simply put this is a thoroughly unreasonable burden.

Companies don't work that way.

Companies do not make public, future commitments for implementing standards.  And when there are attempts to get them to, they waffle and evade.

Also, I believe, the IETF has wisely never tried to impose this burden.

Again, if the goal is to limit this working group to only take on specifications that are already in use, then just say that.   It's simpler, clearer, more direct and, frankly, more pragmatic.

Because that is the practical effect of what's in the charter.
