I support to move the top-level registration.

How many deployed implementations of this MIB are there? How many do
we expect in 3 years? If the later number is significantly larger than
the first one, we should just do the right thing. (And if the later
number is not significantly larger, then there is probably not much
value to put this on the standards track in the first place.)
