An alternative to what this draft does is to define some new MIME

disadvantage that it's ugly, but the advantage that MTAs including
relays don't need to know about it and it's arguably* faster.
Indeed.
So I think it would work fine if people implemented it, but unless
there's a very concrete use case and people ready write and deploy
those implementations, I wouldn't bother.
Fair comment, see use case examples in the document.
