Modulo Kim's comments, there's a simpler answer:

No.

If there are no changes to be made, then it's either ready for enhancement
or needs dropping.

Movement in and out of Deferred is automatic for a reason - it's to
eliminate XEPs which aren't progressing through Experimental.

We don't require implementations at the Experimental->Draft transition; we
require them at the Draft->Final one. Getting widespread implementations
before Draft is, in fact, a problem to the process - look at MAM, Carbons,
and so on, which end up stuck in Experimental.

Because moving things out of Deferred (or stopping them getting there) is
just a minor edit away, there's no need to ask, anyway. But really, if
there's some implementation but you think some more changes will be needed,
then force the issue with a Last Call.

(In this case, of course, sort through the changes Kim found discussed,
first!)

Dave.
