I do it quite a lot as well, it a good common point to find all of the RFCs,
and current extensions that apply to a protocol.
That is one reason why I like the idea of including the history of the code
point in the registry.

That was the assertion in the earlier discussion.
And I'd not be surprised if starting from an IANA registry were very
rare.
I have personally done that considerably more than once. In the SIP world,
there are lots of extensions, so it's not all that rare to do the "what's
this tag about?" dance
