	for the world peace, as long as it does not have impact to global
	routing table (= do not leak out on cross-AS border) it is fine.

	for the ease of use for customers, it is a no-no, because they would
	like to use /48 always.  if they get /62 or something they will need
	to get more prefixes again and again, and/or the amount of addresses
	would affect the address allocation policy towards the customer network
	subnets.

	so, i would like to say "do not do this".  is it too late or still
	possible?
