Hi Ed/Nick/Mark/Michael/Robert/Gyan,
  I have noted the valuable points you brought up regarding the format, and 
operational properties of the prefix. They are all extremely relevant to the 
discussion of the operational guidelines mentioned at the end of section 5. I 
will try to put these together for a potential presentation for discussion 
during IETF 115 (venue TBD).

Thanks
Suresh
