Even if they do, there will be an enhancement. At the moment there are
query restrictions, which are causing problems we can solve with the
IRT. And we can solve the problem of variety and confusion on how to do
it right. The problem of data accuracy which your concern is aiming to,
(I guess) will be handled in another proposal, for example with an
mechanisms to report wrong whois information and RIPE NCC enforcing the
correctness.

I'm absolutely on your page, but we do not know if, and when they are
coming and therefor we should work on a solution for the existing things.
