What changes in the RFC would be necessary to do this?

Putting some sort of generic policy hook into the document (either via explicit dependencies, as in that document, or via some sort of registry of delegates) seems valuable.

That seems pretty reasonable to me. What do others think? In particular, would people like to see an I-D spelling the changes out, or is <https://w3c.github.io/webappsec-csp/cookies/#monkey-patching-rfc6264> sufficiently precise?
