Personally I don't see anything wrong with IANA reserving /8 for RIPE and specifying so on its page, but I really don't see why it should immedialy allocate that much space, as /8 would be what RIPE needs if half of its current membership requested ipv6 and somehow i dont think this is what is happening, you dont even have 10% of your membership doing it yet...
I wouldn't see anything wrong with it either except IANA is allocating sequential /23s, not reserving larger blocks for each RIR. (http://www.iana.org/assignments/ipv6-tla-assignments) Now, consider one of the reasons IPv6 hasn't take off yet is there's a bunch of problems created by the geographical aggregation goals.
