I think the proper cid reference is RFC 2392

A vote for Standards Track, as this ensures IETF LC for everyone's chance 
at a proposal., also so some other WG doesn't attempt to slip something by

But I don't believe we can state who the reviewers are, we're limited to 
the type of RFC (if one is required)
