The cleanest, and most radical, solution would of course be to say "addresses are addresses" and do away with the difference between PI and PA and strip all references the "PA" and "PI" from the policy and RIPE DB.
I've heard talk about such a «PA/PI unification» proposal, at least for IPv6, but I don't think anything was ever actually submitted to the PDP. I would prefer that such a change could be proposed and discussed independently of 2013-03, though. That said: The eventual passing of 2013-03 would be a great benefit to such a proposal, as the amount of policy text that needs to be changed would decrease dramatically.

Yes. Mayby we have what we have with IPv4 but I support Gert in the attempts of bringing som order to the IPv6 space.
