I strongly approve of such requirement. I know that it is in the peering agreements of several carriers, but they often don't check or enforce this. Many register customer routes and ASes. If routes and policies were properly registered, securing the Internet would be a lot closer to being possible.
Is it safe to assume (now) that all the routes one would care to listen to (under normal circumstances) are registered in an IRR now? I remember there used to be well-known issues with some networks, especially internationally. Deepak Jain AiNET
