I don't think I have seen a proposal like this before. I really like it, as there are a bunch of post-IETF stuff, some of which starts in the afternoon and thus conflicts with the IETF. This fixes that problem, enables us to have the same amount of meeting time, and potentially lets people get home a day early.
