Good points (I think "notations are supposed to be standardized" is a
bit strong, but there is use in certain standardized notations so I
agree with your point overall).

So, um, let's just start using a non-standardized notation in the "@"
namespace and then wait for standardization? We just need to agree on
a name, maybe Werner can confirm we are free to use
"timestamp-only at gnupg.org"? What would the value mean?
