You tell us that the effect you want to achieve cannot be attained if the address that you use are also used by customer networks. But then, there is no mechanism whatsoever that would prevent customer networks from using the new /10 as soon as it would be allocated. Sure, you may put text in a RFC somewhere, but that is not a mechanism. Ergo, if we were to make that allocation, it will become unusable for your stated purpose in a very short time.

That is my view as well.  I think this is a bad idea for the reasons stated.
