So it's a problem if every single I-D and RFC author is going to have to consult their own counsel before deciding that won't get into legal trouble when guaranteeing that all of their text is appropriately licensed.

I certainly won't be volunteering to edit any more I-Ds after draft-ietf-ltru-4645bis if I have to worry about my personal legal liability if someone in the Working Group who contributed text has not granted me sufficient IP rights.
