Comment:
Sounds useful to me. We should probably implement #21366 first to fully
support AS names containing spaces. But other than that I don't see any
major problems.
For the sake of consistency between field names and parameter names we
might consider renaming the "as_number" ''field'' to just "as". That's
also more consistent with "country" for the country code and
"country_name" for the country name. This change would require a major
version bump, but in this case we could easily include both fields for a
few months until clients are updated. So, adding an "as" field would be
the minor protocol change and removing the "as_number" field would be the
major protocol change. Or maybe the latter would also be a minor change,
because the field is optional. Anyway, something to consider and somewhat
related to this feature request.
