There is a draft draft-ietf-idr-as-documentation-reservation-00.txt
proposing ASNs 64496 - 64511 for documentation. This is only a draft.
But if this is approved, then I guess you could use GLOP addresses
based on those for documentation :)

Or if perhaps draft-ietf-mboned-ipv4-uni-based-mcast-05.txt ever gets
approved you could use unicast based addresses from 192.0.2.0/24 or
something...

But I guess assigning a specific multicast prefix would be good,
