NODE_BLOOM is distinct from NODE_NETWORK, and it is legal to advertise
NODE_BLOOM but not NODE_NETWORK (eg for nodes running in pruned mode
which, nonetheless, provide filtered access to the data which they do have).
But is this useful without having decided on a way to signal which blocks

Well actually, we can reference the DoS attacks that Bitcoin XT nodes
are undergoing right now - part of the attack is
NACK: stated rationales are invalid: both privacy and DoS (see below for
experimental data).
1 - Bloom filtering doesn't add privacy for node operators, it adds privacy
for lightweight wallets. And in fact, with a high FP rate it does do that.
Most users want both low bandwidth usage *and* query
I'll just quote what I said on github:
Neither this pull nor the BIP has any stated intention of phasing out
bloom filtering support in the protocol. As much as I'd love to, I 100%
agree with @mikehearn here, that would break any ability of SPV clients
to operate on the P2P network (either as a
Its more of a statement of in the future, we expect things to happen
which would make this an interesting thing to do, so we state here that
it is not against spec to do so. Could reword it as NODE_BLOOM is
distinct from NODE_NETWORK, and it is legal to advertise NODE_BLOOM but
not NODE_NETWORK

You don't necessarily need to send everyone the same nServices bits.
It would be very useful to not only be able to switch filtering on and off
globally...but to be able to switch on a per-connection basis. But then
again, perhaps it would be smarter to ditch the whole bloom filter thing in
favor of an actual client/server architecture with proper authentication
Indeed, so I don't really have a problem with this proposal.

The proposal will not break any existing clients in the first release.
After sufficient time to upgrade SPV clients, a new version will be
released which will result in older SPV clients finding themselves
disconnected from peers when they send filter* commands, so they can go
find other peers
