Absolutely. I'd rather see it done responsibly. It's hard to get rid of bad data/incorrect data/stale data and it shouldn't be. If done properly, it would be much friendlier. There is incentive for people to put data in but not to remove the other.

The origin being entered by a provider as their own allows them to add the prefix (and have it accepted by anyone who filters them by prefix generated) without being forced to add a downstream (and downstream's downstreams) AS to their AS-SET.
'proxy registration'... so nice... now you can't control your prefix data in radb, how quaint! 'proxy registration' - never a good idea... not ever... adding cruft that's not connected to the data owner to the database? recipe for stale/old-n-busted data... hurray.
