In general, not a bad approach. However, does a valid amendment include

resolve the issue of having IPR declarations just hanging out there, for
technology that never made it into a standard.

Sure. An amendment is an amendment. A following amendment that says "er,
ignore that last amendment, the original IPR statement is still in
force, and the guy who sent that has been moved to our rendering plant"
is also valid.

Exactly. Keep the trail of breadcrumbs, and leave any dispute
resolution strictly outside the IETF.
