Thank you for this work to improve the use of zone identifiers. 1. The document provides only a small number of RFC2119 requirements. It might be more clear to organise the normative list of items in section 5 in a bulleted list: - Ideally, ... - If ... - If ... 2. Please consider adding text on the challenge for browser configuration. In particular, it could be useful to provide slightly more context on the problem with RFC6874. From draft-schinazi-httpbis-link-local-uri-bcp, I understand: The solution in [RFC6874] requires the browser to treat the zone identifier as part of the origin in some contexts (such as when determining uniqueness of a name), but not in others (such as when sending the Host header on the wire). This significantly increases implementation complexity and security risks. A version of this text might help alert people that a solution for a browser might require various considerations. 3. Please also consider the issues raised in the TSV ART review and SECDIR review to discuss whether anything more can be said about a browser method to specify a zone identifier.
