Sorry, no such consensus.

Well, you certainly don't have agreement/concensus that MS Word
should be used either.

I don't see why the editor you use needs to be open-standard.
As far as I know the IETF is attempting to standardize IP-related
communications protocols, not editors.
 
I do hope that the monitor and keyboard you are using
while reading and sending emails have their schematic diagrams
in the public domain. And please do not write any IETF documents
while using a mouse from a certain proprietary company who holds
dozens of patents on mouse technology.

No need to be silly.


and from a different email from Y(J)S:
Which is exactly the reason all the other SDOs
use MS Word for input and PDF for output.

*all* others do?  That's hard to accept.
