How about, if we have something better to include, we add

While some folks have commented on list that they do not need
DOIs for academic purposes, other folks have been very clear
that it is very helpful.
In addition to some other things for which it may be desirable
to round up proposals, we have something we allege to be better
in the form of "urn:ietf:rfc:2648" (as described in, RFC 2648).
When can we expect those identifiers to start appearing
explicitly in the RFC Index and metadata and in at least
references to RFCs within newly-issued documents in the RFC
Series?
