And if the only benefit is a common abuse alias, hasn't this has already been suggested with an abuse@ address in RFC2142 - Mailbox Names for Common Services, Roles and Functions which is not RIPE region specific?

It is not always obvious which abuse@ domain should be selected for a particular IP address. I like the suggestion of routing reports according to the IP address of the abuse source. -- Thor Kottelin http://www.anta.net/
