This is the reason I'm at least willing to consider a way to filter 
"never to be advertised networks".  However, if/when resource 
certification (A.K.A. RPKI) come into common use this could be much less 
of a problem.  So, I'm not absolutely sure even these networks need to 
be filterable, especially in the long-term.  But, maybe in the near-term 
this could be helpful to prevent abuse, and what happens if RPKI is 
stillborn.

Just thinking out loud.
