i hope so. and the reason why i wrote this was because
when we discussed this in the JP community, several comments were
made about how an inter-RIR transfer would allow ISP's/LIR's etc
to get address from 'regions with a lot of unused address space'
(e.g. arin) but it may not always work that way when money gets involved.
