The point IESG is making is that this problem is not described enough in
the document. That is different than saying the problem have to be solved
in this document alone.
The "Security Consideration Section" is to be read by the people interested
in the protocol, which include the people writing software which create
HTML. It is extremely important the text in this section is written in a
way so the implementor create the application so the end-user have
influence over this data.
That is not the case with other data which today is put automatically in
the html code, and IESG is concerned over that fact.
