to paraphrase from a private conversation:

note that the iana function is the only formal link between the
ietf and the registries, and we should be careful of what we break.
the ietf does not want to start writing rir (and N other fiefdoms)
consideration sections in rfcs.

there are a number of different roles of the iana function, what
different parties need from the iana function, and their/our
respective relationships to and through the iana.  the rir position
seems to be to break away from the iana.  the ietf position, such
as it is, seems more to coordinate the non-dnso iana functions in
the iana in a way well detached from icann dnso politics.
