One idea discussed over various beverages last night was based on an
observation about the high bar that most Proposed Standards have had to
pass over in order to become RFCs: many of them would not have gotten to
publication without having already gone through interoperability testing.
So the idea is that the shepherding files for such I-Ds could include
interoperability reports indicating that they *are* already
interoperable and have successful operational experience, and then be
published directly at Draft Standard status.
