The document is aimed for stds track:

   This document describes a means of negotiating the use of the
   encrypt-then-MAC security mechanism in place of TLS'/DTLS' existing
   MAC-then-encrypt one, which has been the subject of a number of
   security vulnerabilities over a period of many years.

I do not see any issues regarding operational or network management
aspects.

Documents seems ready for publication from my point of view.
