I wouldn't say that the UTC is definitely opposed to this in
principle; rather, that the issues which have been brought up
here have not been fully addressed in the I-D. I believe a
reasonable case for a generic designator exists along side
less generic designators. If the I-D presented a rationale for
the use of a generic "UTF-8" then I think that would be acceptable.
I would expect the I-D to discuss the merits and faults of this
approach.
