Bruce,

your work falls into the category of "sure wish we had had access to it 10 years ago."

in order to incorporate abnf changes to rfc2822 at this point, we would have to re-cycle the specification at Proposed, because the abnf would be new and -- inherently - unstable.

The reading of the community is that it would rather advance the existing work than start over learning to work with the new ABNF, no matter how well done the new abnf might be.
