Just to clear up a misconception on my part. I misread the comment I was responding to. Quoting: "If we allow people to register non-routable globally unique addresses for private use" My brain for some reason initially interpretted that as "registering globally unique addresses, but not having them be routable, due to local policy", which is a bit different. For one, it wouldn't accommodate simple, well known non-routeable filters. John
