Hmm. This depends on what you mean. Policy is today decided by the 
membership of the RIRs. I think that RIRs should do allocations 
according to the policy set by the RIRs members. The IETF should set 
technical standards for the protocols using those addresses or making 
up those addresses. If those protocols require limitations in policy, 
that should be declared in the protocol specification. I think you will 
find it hard to get the RIR membership to agree on having policy set 
outside the RIR membership.

If you want to influence the allocation policy, go the RIRs meetings.
