Before answering this question, perhaps Tim you can say if it will still be possible to create foreign ROUTE objects after this implementation?
Currently there are place holder INET(6)NUM objects in the RIPE Database covering all non RIPE address space. These objects have an "mnt-routes:" attribute referencing the MNTNER object with the public password. This is necessary to (by)pass the address space auth requirements for creating ROUTE(6) objects. Do you plan to make any changes to this mechanism/arrangement with this implementation?
