This draft mentions that the IETF has the authority to instruct IANA to
reserve pseudo-TLDs as required for protocol design purposes. There is
no action requested from IANA for ".local" in the IANA Considerations
section.
There is in fact a request, it's just made indirectly. That was my
complaint.
I'm aware that the draft claims this is an IETF/IANA responsibility
and not an ICANN one. I'm not sure I'm convinced, and I think the
IESG should take that into account when making their decision about
the draft. But I don't think it's a reason to hold it up anyway.
