I think we all agree that ULA is the way to number the autonomic control
plane.   Current ULA-Random has the disadvantage that, when there are routing
leaks, where they come from.  We see this today with RFC1918 address spaces,
and the AS112 project exists to deal with the resulting reverse DNS lookup
impact of those leaks.

A ULA-C had the advantage that while they are seperate from an ISP or
enterprise's GUA allocation, they are still trackable when they leak.
I think it very important that the ACP be numbered in a different space than
production.  With ULA-C, one would get reverse DNS delegated to you, etc.
cf: https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-ipv6-ula-central-02
which is from 2007, but could be revived, I think.
