How would you feel about ARIN being the root of a registry hierarchy that works similar to the DNS? In that case, ARIN would not necessarily hold the route information, they would just be at the top of the search hierarchy just like the root name servers are at the top of the DNS hierarchy. ARIN would authoritatively identify the leaseholder of an address block and give you a pointer to that leaseholder's LDAP server where you could query for whatever info they have available.
So how are you going to reach the leaseholder's LDAP server if you're in the middle of checking their prefix to see if it's worthy of being included in your routing table?
