Toni, An important question is: what means "routable" ? Is an address routable because it is "summarizable" ? Most IETF-folks think so, whereas I do not. IMHO, neither a HIT, nor an IPv4/6 address nor an AS number is routable. Well,wrt these, just IPv4/6 unicast addresses are summarizable. Your proposal tends towards E.164 (enum inverse :-), right ?

To be clear, I use the term "autonomous system" in the sense of "routing domain", considering both interchangeable.
