I know this is all "multicast" space, but considering classless routing and CIDR, shouldn't this space be usable and able to be manipulated ?
Nope. Its still special. Once you turn on multicast support, you get to "diddle" in that space although not directly. See the nanog archives from late 1996/early 1997 for exaustive discussions on what were special use addresses and what became special use. Look for "Martian" in the subject thread.
