Perhaps it would be worth while to add a “RSA Version” field to Whois with 
possible values of:

None
LRSA v<X>
RSA v<X>
CUSTOM

Where <X> is the appropriate version number.

This doesn’t disclose the details of the custom RSA, but at least it allows 
others to know which terms the block is covered by or that those terms are 
unknown to the community.
