Well, I would also like something that is clear that running code is favored to a completely unimplemented proposal. Text welcome.

I suggest that paragraph 5 of the draft charter be replaced with:

It is expected that design proposals will be tested during the development of specifications. The working group will favor designs that are tested with running code and that demonstrate interoperability.

How about adding, "Scalability is also an important design consideration that the WG will take into account."? I agree that we ought not be excluding small providers, but we also can't start adding features (or at the very least required features) that only work for small providers and cannot work at scale for the larger ones. As you say, no bad faith assumed, but we all know of WGs that have gone off the rails with lots of interesting features that work in theory.
