Me neither. I think is fine to *encourage* newly formed LIRs to return
IPv6 PI when they're requesting PA, but *requiring* it is a tad too
tough. If the end result is that the newly formed LIRs cannot provision
their End Users with IPv6 addresses because they cannot realistically
get PA space, we're doing something wrong...

That said, this isn't my itch to scratch really (I already have all the
IPv6 I need)...so if you want to do a proposal, Richard, go right ahead!
I promised myself 2014 would be a proposal-free year...and besides I
won't be going to Warszawa either. :-/
