This sums up my personal opinion.

If they are not going to connect immediately, then let them use private
address space and renumber their 3 hosts later.

If they are going to connect immediately, let the service provider
registry assign numbers. I know of cases where they subnet part of
the SP space. Soon - when we have a classless allocation registry, 
this can even be registered.

Problem solved.

No?
