That draft seems like a let's make the best of it way of dealing with

You might also want to take a look at the related host-meta proposal

location document for protocols with simple metadata or policy
requirements and WebFinger defines a way to find profile and
configuration information about accounts (which in the case of email
providers is also about email addresses).
