remember, this when contemplating *creating* a roa.  ain't no new
invalids yet, intended or unintended.  when contemplating creating a
roa, i want to know how i will be affecting the global routing of that
prefix, not just my local router.

i love bgp alerter.  butt tha is ex post facto.  the CA check of the
effect of contemplated roa creation is *before* i break things.

but, while i see a comparison to 42 more local views as uninteresting,
they would not seem to cause harm.  but i would keep the global
comparison as the prominent user-facing feature.

but if you want to be creative, when i contemplate adding a roa for a
prefix, it would be nice to check that i am not invalidating longer
sub-prefixes, e.g. those possibly routed by customers.  and again, in
the global table.
