This is not meant to be pejorative. "RIPE-NONAUTH" was brought up
because that way we don't touch the majority of objects that actually
are valid, and belong with RIPE.

Since we are brownfielding, I see no other option than to continue using
the historic tag for the main chunk of the database, and split out the
non-authoritative data into a different tag.

If you have a different suggestion than "RIPE-NONAUTH" I think the group
would be all ears. "RIPE-2", "RIPE-OTHER", all is fine with me.

Kind regards,
