No, I think it makes perfect sense to have a separate address for
a management service. We don't necessarily have to reserve it for
Cockpit alone, but perhaps requisition it for "HTTP-based system
management consoles".
Multiplexing port 80 is a hack of the worst kind and I think we
can make that argument.
Sounds good. Are you interested in writing the IANA?
