Hi, I think an additional thing the IETF can do is make sure that every item of what is potentially personal data includes the capability of being hidden or deleted without disturbing the rest of a record. While the condition vary, we know that various legislative frameworks are protecting various elements of personal data (more all the time). Anything the IETF produces should allow that functionality. This might even include the basic capability that might be needed to support tiered access to personal data.
