[Not surprisingly] I also think we should just do it. I don't know if it will succeed, but the longer we wait the less the probability it will. Right now people have to provision devices to send XYZ thing in INFO, and different vendors are using different syntaxes/means for the same mechanism, and I loathe that. If we want to stop devices in the middle from meddling, we need to stop giving them reasons to.
