Ah, no, sorry, we can't do that, even if it was correct.
We do not have a Network Layer Area in the IETF.
You have to pick routing or transport, and surely it can not be routing.

(tongue in cheek).

Then again, RTG also has TEAS, RAW, replication (multicast) is arguably also
not routing. But probably this would create too much of a rift.

On the othrer hand, I would certainly like to see CC and AQM to not be done
in different working groups, because if planned together, they will work better.
And i would love to not see them tied into the "fad of the decade" transport 
protocol that
primarily attempts to solve completelty different issues (such as minimizing
the number of round trips in messages to establish a crypto association).
(Not that there is anything bad with a fad of the decade, but upgrading the
 Internet infrastructure for better CC takes longer, and so it would be prudent
 to also design the host-side CC aspects from that perspective and 
nonwithstanding
  which transport protocol they're integrated into).
