I think the above mechanism proposes punching holes to current aggregates, 
not tweaking registry policy.  In that sense, it's dangerous.  A separate 
proposal to assign  e.g. PI /48's from RIR's might be useful to have on 
the table.

I think draft-savola-multi6-asn-pi-00.txt also belongs under this 
category.
