Speaking about the RFC, I can see that there is a draft but nothing
formal yet. The last one I can see is v14 from last November:
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-ietf-uuidrev-rfc4122bis-14
It does not strike me as a good idea to rush an implementation without
a specification officially approved because there is always a risk of
shipping something that's non-compliant into core. But perhaps I am
missing something on the RFC side?
