  *> On a lexical level I would suggest that the default mnemonic be IETF-<wgname>[-<specifier>]-<year> where the specifier is optional.
  *>  

<wgname>s are often chosen to be cute amd are rather obscure to all but
the most IETF-centric, so they are probably not a useful source for
short names of specific standards.  No, the IESG/WG has to apply a bit
of wisdom here.
