Sure, we could do a new message for negotiation, but there doesn=E2=80=99t s=
eem to be a lot of reason for it - using the same namespace for negotiation s=
eems fine too. In any case, this is one of those things that doesn=E2=80=99t=
 matter in the slightest, and if one person volunteers to write a BIP and co=
de, no reason they shouldn=E2=80=99t just decide and be allowed to run with i=
t. Rough consensus and running code, as it were :)
