Yes, the "HTML CHANGE PROPOSAL" was addressed to 
http://www.w3.org/html/wg/tracker/issues/56

No. Waiting for preconditions would create an unfortunate and
unnecessary deadlock. The current internet draft
   http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-duerst-iri-bis-07

is sufficient to consider the HTML WG proposal now. Any definition
thought "necessary" and not contained in -07 should be treated
as an issue/change proposal to it.

draft-duerst-iri-bis-07 is the proposed starting point of the IRI 
working group, and changes or additions should be made as the 
result of participation, discussion and consensus on the 
public-iri@w3.org mailing list, including the participation
of members of the browser vendor and broader HTML community.
