I'd agree that the Twitter Kerfluffle is what surfaced it, but keep in mind that this has been on the radar since at least last year[1] (actually earlier[2]).

The timing of this release is hardly coincidental, but it's been on the minds of the politicians for long enough that this reads to me more like an opportune time to push something forward that's been brewing for a while, rather than an off-the-cuff reaction.
