Mark,
One thing I didn't catch earlier (sorry): the change controller for types in the standards tree MUST be the IESG. It would be more appropriate to say it's the IETF community as described in RFC 2048 and the documents that will soon obsolete 2048, but the IESG is the standards process gatekeeper so that's what we've been using. We've also accepted text where people have said something like "The <foo> working group as designated by the IESG".
