I think that's just what RFC 2026 says:

4.2.3  Procedures for Experimental and Informational RFCs
   
   Unless they are the result of IETF Working Group action, documents   
   intended to be published with Experimental or Informational status   
   should be submitted directly to the RFC Editor.
...
   Documents proposed for Experimental and Informational RFCs by IETF
   Working Groups go through IESG review.  The review is initiated using
   the process described in section 6.1.1.

Since it says "should", it's not absolutely clear to me that it forbids
the other path, but it's clear that it expresses a preference.
