Or maybe just expand the existing SSO attribute to accept a RegID. For
example:

mntner: FOOBAR-MNT
auth:   SSO no.foobar

Which would allow maintenance by all registered user accounts in LIR
no.foobar (except for accounts with the «billing» privilege level).

I was hoping that a PDP wouldn't be necessary, to be honest. That is, if
the NCC thought it was a good idea they could just go ahead and implement
it. (If I recall correctly, the «auth: SSO» functionality was added
without there being a community policy demanding it.)

That said, if you want to write a proposal to this effect I'd be happy to
put my name on it.
