That was the intent  of the registry entries and it may have been 
incorrectly set up. It was a bad idea to put these bits into the 
extension id field in the first place so this was the best way to 
reserve the fields so that the rest of the ID's were available without 
totally destroying the way extension fields were meant to be.

It took a while to get this set up but at least it allowed autokey 
(RFC5906) to move forward.
