Seems like a step in the right direction, but as long as it mandates OGC Filter and GML instead of CQL and GeoJSON it has, imho, little chance to fly with the community that likes to use REST services in the first place. Mandating CQL and GeoJSON and making OGC Filter and GML optional extras would give this proposed approach a higher chance for acceptance imho.
