The two weeks of discussion are over now, the RFC didn't receive any
substantial changes after the initial proposal, and neither was there
any significant content-related feedback after the first few days.
As such, I plan to open the vote early next week without making
further changes to the RFC text.

Hi Tim,
Not that my opinion counts for much, but I have to say I find this very odd.
Good class names:
Id // Identifier
ID // Identity Document
I understand the distinction you wish to make here, between an acronym
and abbreviation, but I think it's a meaningless distinction. In this
case, `Id` would be fine for "identifier", but "Identity Document"
should simply be `IdentityDocument`. Whilst the distinction may seem
meaningful to you, it certainly does not look that way to me; I think it
would be difficult to remember and explain to someone else. Perhaps the
tie breaker could be that it wouldn't be meaningful to an automated
style checker, either. That is, it would be difficult to enforce this
policy exception in any automated way. Why not just keep it simple and
consistent here, disallowing runs of multiple upper-case letters?
Cheers,
Bilge
