You did good, things need to move on this feature.

Yeah that's not a problem, no need to use Shakespearian characters all the 
time, many XEPs don't.

Most clients do because it's necessary to use things such as OMEMO, modern 
bookmarks or VCard, etc. No need for a full XEP-0060 implementation.

I'm thinking about vanilla pubsub, the same mechanism as used now, just on 
pubsub nodes, that gives out of the box subscriptions and permissions 
management.

Pubsub Colleciton has nearly no implementation, and has some issues. I've 
actually proposed an alternative with XEP-0496 "Pubsub Node Relationships" and 
following XEPs, but it's too young and there is not yet implementations. I 
think vanilla pubsub is enough for the moment, this can still be used later if 
the need arises.

Note that this is just a suggestion. Your specification has been accepted 
anyway.

Thanks for your specification and work in general :)
