I also seem to remember Bill Woodcock suggesting this at some ARIN
meeting in 2001 or 2002. If I recall he proposed that this be somewhat like a document trust with no operations (beyond providing NS service)
and when somebody needs a service the ip block would have to be moved
to regional RIR.

If your proposal for separate legacy RIR is different, then you need
to have a model on how it would be run and how its operations would
be financed (especially security procedures associated with assigning certs, etc).
