I think the work you cite belongs in tsvwg. AT least 4542 and
vpn-signaling-preemption.

Which work would be permitted under the revised charter that is
currently udone elsewhere? I may have more concerns about the revised
charter than I thought I did.

that rather depends on what question they're asking, now doesn't it?
IF they're asking for enhancements to RSVP to deal with some ETS
issues, then yes, I'd hope the work would be done in tsvwg. That way,
ETS requirements can be balanced against other requirements. If they
want to change SIP, I'd hope that it would go through sipping and
eventually sip.
If they want us to do non-protocol work closer to 4542, then perhaps
we need a WG to do it in.
