The quotient-manifold criterion for Banach–Lie subgroups

Let GG be a Banach–Lie group and let HH be a closed subgroup. Let q:GG/Hq:G\to G/H be the quotient map, q(g)=gHq(g)=gH.

Quotient-manifold criterion. HH is a Banach–Lie subgroup if and only if G/HG/H carries the structure of a Banach manifold for which qq has a surjective differential at each point and the action of GG on G/HG/H is smooth.

This is a proposed analogue, for general subgroups, of the preceding quotient criterion for closed normal subgroups. The supplied text does not state whether the criterion is known or remains open.
