Hi There: Although it does sounds good idea consider how big the routing table has become, but in practice, I guess would be very difficult, as there is no way to prevent people spam them then return to RIPE NCC for a new one, plus, with smaller allocation pool every day, the ability RIPE NCC would be able to practice such policy, would be in a rather limited time, so it will be a policy only works for---let's say 6 months, longest 2 years. So I agree with Arash, leave the IPv4 alone, seriously, get IPv6 done so you don't have to look at the size of IPv4 routing table.
