Right. One of the necessary consequences of the proposal, given that we do want to get functionality to authors in finite time, is that the process for getting a spec to whatever state allows unprefixing would need to be shorter. Either via allowing unprefixing before CR or by getting to CR _much_ more quickly. -Boris
