dom-net tag under domain

Dear NCC people,

I think that too strict sintax checking is applied in the case
of the dom-net database field. An example follows.
We are deploying technology to obsolete networks classes (A,B,C,...)
and at the same time the RIPE database checking rules do not take
into account the actual usage of dear old subnetworks?

In practice very often a number of subnetworks of a class B network are
used to host machines in a domain while other subnetworks are used
to host machines of a different domain. This is common for large
networks in a city.

We would like the checking rules to be relaxed in this case.
Could you please do that?
