Would this be a full fledged Anglican rite, similar to the Byzantine rite in Catholicsm, which is Catholic but not Roman Catholic while of course accepting papal supremacy? I believe that's what Moyer and Hepworth (Primate of the Traditional Anglican Communion) are proposing. It's still in preliminary talks, though, so it's impossible to say how it would work or whether it would work at all. I do not believe they are talking about the Anglican Use option that has been in place for a number of years.

To the best of my very limited knowledge on this topic I believe trad_anglican is correct. My understanding is that it would be a uniate rite, though whether the current Anglican Use Book of Divine Worship (which is based on the ecusa 1979 BCP, which is based on the RC NO liturgy) would be used is sort of iffy. That's because the majority of the folks on the Anglican side of this discussion don't use the '79 BCP now...might be something adapted from the '28 BCP instead.
Again, I need to stress that I'm very much simply going by what I've read in passing of other folks discussions, and NO ONE involved in the contacts between either FIF and/or TAC and Vatican have told me anything.
