Thank you for working on the RFC -- there really wasn't much community 
engagement on the post in 2019, so reminding the community about the original 
RFC would also be really helpful. This is adding a fairly significant amount of 
code to support the extension (not just the qualifier, but the PAC work in 
general), so I want to make sure the community is comfortable with it.

(FWIW, I have no opinions about it yet because I'm still learning what it is.)
