So why don't we implement a way for people to get centrally assigned ULAs? The simple way to do this is to sell prefixes of a suitable size (I'm thinking 20 bits worth) to people who are prepared to run a registry for further distribution. In practice, this means that pretty much everyone who sells domains will be selling ULA-cs, too. Simple, easy.
No need to create a market in integers. We can surely invent a robot
to allocate and escrow pseudo-random 40 bit numbers at negligible cost,
and therefore set up a free service.

someone already has:

I prefer
http://www.kame.net/~suz/gen-ula.html
because it lets me enter my own 802 address, but yes - the only thing
to be added is an escrow file so that the exact same ULA never gets
issued twice, and a throttle to prevent DOS.
