Well we took a direction by which we request IANA to assign both that 
RegReq Type ("Mobile Network Extension") as well as the Sub-Types and 
the Codes in both MNExtensions and in the existing RegReq and RegRep. 
This involves modification of existing MIP4 sub-registries and 
assignments of new ones.

The policies of future assignments within the new sub-registries are 
"Standards Action" or "IESG Approval".  This means what it means for 
"NEMOv4 Tunneling Extension" Sub-Type of draft-ietf-mip4-nemov4-fa-01.txt

I think this course of action is satisfying many involved parties.

Alex
PS: "Standards Action", "IESG Approval" and other policies for future 
assignments within a new space/registry are desribed in 
draft-narten-iana-considerations-rfc2434bis-08.txt
