If someone really wants to take this to the IETF, probably the path of lesser resistance would be to get a new BCOP published which recommends everyone bleach the origin type to IGP to implicitly deprecate the attribute, and advise networks do things that avoid the FSM getting as far down the process as router ID.
I think this kind of attribute bleaching and implicit deprecation needs a standards track draft anyway, possibly in a similar way as the AS Sets went into deprecation. It's gonna be indeed years before adoption anyway, yet we should at least "officially" do a statement that this is indeed that direction.
