IMHO there should be no filtering for this space.
It should not be announced at all and if a packet is detected
the party sending out that packet should be <fill in punishment>.

Good reason for not filtering are:
 - If someone does use it it will show up in the various monitors.
 - It avoids having to remove the filters when IANA reassigns the space.

Especially the second part is usefull as, like seen now on some networks
who filter out certain ipv4 prefixes and 'forget' about the filters.
