There already is a bunch of RFCs in place for high latency protocols.

Famously RFC1149: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1149 . I suspect that wouldn’t fly in an interplanetary scenario though.

I think https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1217 might be more appropriate, and even touches on the relevant topic in section 5(e).
