Per discussions with MQTT TC officers and TC ballots, I have registered 'mqtt' in the IANA WebSocket Protocol Registries ( WebSocket Subprotocol Name Registry:
Subprotocol Identifier: mqtt
Subprotocol Common Name: mqtt
Subprotocol Definition: [MQTT v3]
If the name (Subprotocol Identifier 'mqtt') needs to be revisioned and/or the specification URI updated, we can probably do that, but we decided to use the live MQTT v3 URI reference for the Subprotocol Definition instead of an AWOL (perhaps-later) MQTT v4 ( ... v4.0/mqtt-v4.0.html ) [1]
Thanks to Richard and Raphael for coordination on the registration details.
