I can't see > anything that would not fit into those two use cases. There are plenty of situations where the semantics of what you're suggesting would be troublesome to define, for example, confederations, asn translation or asn migration, leading to cases where there would be multiple asns being legitimate on a single router. And even if these cases could be cleared up easily, what happens when someone injects a prefix tagged with a community which isn't the same as their ASN? You're then stuck with the situation where you're defining one thing as a MUST in the semantic specification section of the rfc, while down in the Security Considerations section, it's going to need to be admitted that there's no guarantee whatsoever that the global administrator field in the large community was actually set by the ASN which announced the prefix. Worse still, once it's been changed, there is no practical way for a neighbor to detect this change, as s-bgp isn't a thing. Realistically, vendors are going to implement ways of modifying the field in exactly the same way as rfc1997 communities can be set to anything at all at any policy specification point in a bgp-enabled network.
