1. AFAIK, it is not "illegal" to number router interfaces out of 1918  
space (but you don't want to do that if you need to generate path MTU  
discovery messages)

2. DNS is escaping packets, not escaping routes = irrelevant

3. Leaking RFC 1918 prefixes in BGP only means that SOME people don't  
use good filters SOME of the time (probably all people some of the  
time / some people all of the time, but that aside), not that the  
state of route filtering is such that internet-wide connectivity can  
be had using address space that most people feel should be filtered

What happened to "I encourage my competitors to run their networks  
this way"?
