If someone tries to hijack your car or your computer, jurisdiction should be clear, and you will know *where* to present a report. That, unfortunately has no paralell for IP addressing -- well, maybe except in the LACNIC region where they have WARP (Warning Advice and Reporting Point). I don't know how many people are aware about WARP's existence, i just found out about it quite recently :-) >> However, pushing for a conversion from legacy to "RIR system" looks very >> delicate.

Nothing good can conceivably come off > that. Afaik access to the certification service (RPKI) is voluntary and is already available for legacy holders that engage with the RIR system (see ripe-724, republished yesterday from ripe-674 and ripe-615).
