I suspect your 3 implementations in flight can add 64 bits of header on top
of the existing code without too much headache.  They should already have
transitivity checks in the code for extended communities they can lift.

And if those 3 implementations in flight ship on squatted code points
without appropriate plans to change per IDR standardization, they've learned
nothing about the foibles of what happens when you ship too early.
