Indeed.  As has "provider aggregateable" space, if there are enough
"providers".

Which is why my short-term vision is more along the lines of "entities
that think their global routing table slot is important enough to undergo
some hassles" (read: become RIR member, sign international contracts, pay 
recurring fees) get one - and everybody else doesn't.

And indeed this is not something everybody will like - and hopefully,
there will be some other solution that will enable end-user multihoming / 
end-user network portability without requiring a "global BGP table slot".
