In my role as a media type reviewer, for example, it's unlikely I'd accept an I-D as a stable reference in a registration request except maybe for a provisional registration. I could be wrong, but my understanding of the intent of "Specification Required" is roughly "permanently published, though not necessarily by the IETF", so I think the bar is a little higher than just the existence of an I-D. As to the options proposed, I agree that Expert Review can introduce delay, but given the above, so too can Specification Required (maybe worse, in aggregate). So I recommend Expert Review. Finally, I just realized my DISCUSS on this document about the IANA Considerations is redundant to Ben's, so I'm going to go clear it and just support Ben's. -MSK
