If I may split a few hairs, I agree that it's a problem to which people would
like to have solved, which isn't quite the same as wanting to solve it.

If we see credible reports of people saying that they would actually use
something like this proposal, or Ben's possible DELEG hacks, then sure, go
ahead. But I don't want to spin up anther effort like DBOUND where we had
proposals that were technically plausible but the parties that mattered were not
interested in using them.

R's,
John
