I also believe that we should be watching the IPv6 PI policy proposal at

I disagree. The ARIN proposal seems to be 'PI for any ASN holder' in which
case
a) this will limit who gets the PI space to large organisations
b) be limited by the 16-bit ASN space (and may create a land rush)
c) be useless to the small end site that wants to use unique ULAs
But I may have misunderstood the ARIN proposal :)
Following up to myself, the proposal in fact says 'sites who could qualify
for an ASN'. But that does limit who could use this source for PI.
Well yes, but ULAs aren't actually PI space anyway (in the sense of
routeable PI space), so I think this is all a bit orthogonal to
the proposal to simply watch what happens with locally assigned ULAs.
