There has been some discussion [1,2] on making RDF a "living standard" by leveraging the new W3C Process from 2021. The general consensus, as I see it is: why not, but be careful not to make RDF too unstable.
I believe that a subgroup of the WG would need to think about it and produce, early on, a WG note about how to deal with new features in an acceptable way.

What do others think about it?

Agree - it is something to start early.

Looking at our (this group) RDF-star experience, there have been several ideas that seem reasonable but when we dig into the details find it invalidates existing usage. e.g. "old client-new server" for new MIME types.

With no perfect solution, we have to choose the way forward with compromise, and that needs time.
