Yes, I believe this is quite useful.  I also belive in-addr are useful,
even though sometimes used improperly. The delegation chain should be
provided alongside with address allocations [this may fall upon the RIR
policies].  Whether the endsites fill those is their policy, and this 
draft should try to list the tradeoffs for such decisions.

There are some remnants still, e.g. in the introduction, btw.
