https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-grow-bgp-gshut-07 has just been posted 
and addresses the above point.

As previously discussed on the list, the main technical change is the focus, 
for the eBGP signaling, on the use of a well-known BGP community.
In other word, the alternative option to use a non-transitive community has 
been removed, following latest IDR discussion on community and the lack of 
implementation (hence IDR WG progress) of 
draft-ietf-idr-reserved-extended-communities / 
draft.ietf-idr-as4octet-extcomm-generic-subtype.
As a benefit, this draft is now aligned with:
- the BGP gshut/planned maintenance implementations disclosed on this list 
https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/grow/ReJtavkJDlyrDo5qoD7u9iJDLXs
- the deployed usage

Thanks to Job for the in-depth review, comments, and reminders to update the 
draft.

--Bruno
