For what it is worth, the draft was intended for publication as an
Internet Standard (STD 71). As I see it, the problem here is that
"Intended status: Standards Track" is assumed to be "Proposed Standard".
As the Document Shepherd runs a draft through Id-nits, he or she will
not catch the above issue. It's unlikely that the IETF Secretariat will
catch the issue.

rfc2629.xslt allows specifying the intended maturity in the XML source...:

<http://greenbytes.de/tech/webdav/rfc2629xslt/rfc2629xslt.html#rfc.section.12.1.p.2>

...but it's only metadata in the XML source. Maybe we should add it to the ID boilerplate in the future?
