After the review comments, Kurt has come to believe that the current
document is actually too much of a grab bag, and that it probably
needs to be split to make progress.  We have had some discussion
on where those splits should be, and it does look likely that one
of the "daughter" documents will contain just the matching rules,
which will enable this to unstick.  We're working through right
now where that leaves in terms of process (e.g., do we need to
have a new IETF last call, since all of the text in this has previously
been last called?).

I've updated the tracker to reflect the "new ID needed" state, which
is as close as we can come in the current system.  Sorry that hadn't
been done before, things were in flux enough that I haven't been
sure how to mark this.
