Just to be clear on what this means. The technical suggestion is for the
"abuse-c:" attribute to reference a ROLE object with a "role-type:" set
to abuse. In this ROLE object there will be an "abuse-mailbox:" attribute.

Because of the hierarchical nature, if an end user has their own abuse
team, they can reference their own abuse type ROLE object with an
"abuse-c:" in the INETNUM object for their assignment. This will
override the LIRs abuse team reference only for this one assignment.
