Maybe it's a bad case of DEnglish on my side, but I'd still prefer to
remove the "historically" from the draft before publication.

That could be tricky, but getting a proper RFC number for their "ICP"
documents, US ASCII and all, I'd like that.  The status could be also
"informational", like RFCs published by the IAB, IESG, or IASA.

It will be soon ten years old, it doesn't change often enough for an
ION.  Or rather that's my concept of ION:  Needing modifications often,
like your roadmap text.  Maybe your concept of ION is more like "doesn't
need the complete last call + approval + RFC editor bureaucracy", that
would be somewhat different.

What happened 1995 ?  RFC 1591 is clearly better than RFC 1032, but in
that case the official status is critical to cover the relevant parts
of RFC 954.
