Certainly practical scenario, but in many cases not needed at all. In most cases upstream does not do any automatic prefix filter generation, it's maybe somewhat popular in mid-sized european shops but generally not too common. There is active on-going work to secure BGP and you may want to read up on 'RPKI' which is further along that track. -- ++ytti
