> how do we bootstrap queries for entities?

There's no global namespace for entities, contrary to domain names and 
IP addresses. Entities are specific to a particular RDAP server. So IMHO 
bootstrapping entities is a non-issue.

IMHO the proposal from draft-blanchet-weirds-bootstrap-ianaregistries is 
simpler and cleaner.
