IMHO[1] I think this better that what we have now in that it allows us to make use of the last bits of address space and any that may become available later on. Probably not going to make a huge difference in extending IPv4's life but sure stops people complaining about the IANA holding numbers that could be put to use on the Internet. As a matter of local implementation, if this policy is adopted, I would like to request that the RIPE NCC issue public statements to its members each time this policy is exercised, whether it gets new addresses in the period or not.
