fwiw, i'd consider a re-chartered wg to cover possible revisions or

  https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3156   -- PGP/MIME
  https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6637   -- ECC in OpenPGP

To add an item to Werner's earlier list:

 * i'd like to spec out an adjustment to PGP/MIME that provides
   signature and encryption protection for RFC 822 headers.


 As a note: I consider figuring out something for RFC 822 headers a very
high priority. It is particularly difficult, because many '822' headers are
mainly intended for servers. (And are important for spam control.)

So it may be necessary, in some cases, to encrypt some of the 822 headers
only to the ultimate recipient, and some of them to the server as well.
