I don't want to comment on which venue is appropriate. However, I can report that we have some experience with this kind of thing based on ARIN-prop-154, which ended up with RFC 6598. In that case, ARIN made a /10 available and we registered it in the IANA IPv4 Special-Purpose Address Registry when the draft was approved. The implementation of things like this is generally not a problem. Regards, Leo Vegoda ICANN, IANA
