With apologies for putting a damper on enthusiasm, I have to note that the COSE WG charter (https://datatracker.ietf.org/wg/cose/about/) limits our consideration of work items to algorithms "that have been evaluated by the CFRG and algorithms which have gone through a public review and evaluation process such as was done for the NIST SHA-3 algorithms."
The restriction on what we can adopt as WG work items does not mean that we can't talk about the algorithms, though. I seem to recall that CFRG has had some discussion of BLS previously, but forget the details; perhaps you recall that history better than I do.
