While I agree in principle, there is one problem with this. Without
knowing the prefix allocated, setting up the name servers to serve it
gets pretty tricky. I do think it would be a good idea to clearly
state that reverse DNS _is_ required in either RFC 2772 or its
successor, though.

The problem is that without some way to enforce that, it gets nothing
but a blow in the air. We don't need rules that are impossible or
extremely hard to enforce beyond the "would you please do this"
point - I think more or less everyone here can agree with that.
