My suggestion would be along the lines what was proposed on the APWG meeting already - earmark these /24s as non-transferrable, ever.
I don't think it is a good idea to split the IPv4 addresses into different types, transferable and non-transferrable. it puts those newcomers in a disadvantageous position compared to the older members, it is not fair and doesn't fix anything in long term.
Actually, the point is to have something to offer to the newcomers. If we do not stop the hoarding *now*, there won't be any IPv4 left - would that be "more fair" to the newcomers? I wouldn't mind a policy that says "The RIPE NCC does no longer deal in IPv4 resources at all. Everything coming back into the RIPE NCC free pool is returned to IANA." - that would be maximally *fair* (the same amount of nothing for everybody), but I assume you wouldn't like that either.
