COMMENT:
----------------------------------------------------------------------

This is a small thing, but in general I think it would be preferable not to
embed the name "iana" in identifiers that can be consumed programmatically (the
namespace URN and module name). What distinguishes the iana-routing-types
module seems to be that the types define values for address family identifiers,
not the fact that the registries containing those identifiers happen to be
administered by IANA. If somebody else administered those registries it would
have no effect on the contents of the module.
