In fact, there is actually very little use for doing the whole thing in the RIPE database in the first place. I haver never found any use at all for looking up one of the in-addr.arpa objects in the database. Maybe we should even think about retiring the 'domain:' objects and 'rev-srv:' attributes altogether and offer a simple secure web or mail user interface for submitting reverse delegations.
While I agree with the first half of your comments (do away with domain: and do it with the inetnum:) I disagree here. Users know how to access and modify the RIPE database - so please don't introduce yet another interface just for the reverse DNS.
