Alternatively it could be a separate document, referenced from the main
document, which could have its own development life cycle.

David et al:

I don't know if this would match the convention of our WSA document, but 
it may be an idea to have the section in the doc describe the 
functionality of the component, its' interfaces and formal functional 
constraints, then add a small non-normative section that may discuss any 
specifications or technologies that could  be investigated for use as 
that component.

The downside is that this may age the WSA doc if those specs change.
