RFC 4646 was written to mirror RFC 3066 (and before), with separate
storage of the forms. The forms could be aggregated into a single file,
etc. I don't know why IANA isn't archiving the forms currently.
I too find it questionable when the final registered format is not sent
to the list prior to forwarding (or at least as part of forwarding) to
IANA. In fact, I suspect that, given the stability guarantees and rules
in RFC 4646, such registrations can be appealed if they differ from the
requested record.
