Personally, I've never had a problem with declaring an outbound timing for a procedure that defines the FAF by means of a navaid or fix. The procedure can still be called VOR/DME but, with a titling change to ICAO charts, the procedure should be identified as VOR RWY 17 with information in another box to identify the other aids that are required by the procedure. I'm not convinced that's the right way to go but it seems to be more related to database recording than actual chart usage.
I can't speak to PANS-OPS, but with TERPS when DME is mandatory for the final approach segment DME goes in the title. When DME is not mandatory for the final approach segment, but for some other part of the procedure then DME Required goes in a note.
In any case, timing makes no sense when the FAF requires DME.
As to Jeppesen "copying" the AIP chart that is all they are permitted to do.
