I can also see potential for adding some info to the Tao, but the danger there

Many would claim it already is. We discussed that here a few years ago, and informally decided
"too long" was better than "too short and with a lot of pointers to other documents
that needed to be read".
Is this a tutorial?
Mainly. To quote...

Proposal: maybe don't do this as an Internet Draft, but do it as a tutorial.
Or in the TAO, which is fairly clearly non-normative even when issued as
an RFC.
