Not that much... conflicting appointments on the weekend right after
the RIPE meeting... I thought I had enough sleep, but seems not.

"Just permitting the conversion" ("in one piece, not to be fragmented 
further") would be one option :-) - no extra routing table impact, no 
extra address space consumption, and possibly improved documentation.

But that's not for me to decide, it's for you to propose and for the
WG to decide :-)  (but it matches what I read here).
