They can get a code-point but not a Y since there is no IETF consensus/WG 
agreement.

Is this a problem? How and why?  Will a non-approval from IETF really hamper 
the acceptance and deployment since it's already on-track to be widely used?  I 
can't see why that would be true.

The only possible practical impact I can see is that someone like OpenSSL might 
not provide it.  But a Y doesn't guarantee we will, either.
