How about releasing a /6 or two in /23 increments or
so with the idea of jumpstarting a market in IPv4
space explicitly stated?  

If clear title were granted (or at least clear 99-year
lease with transferability), that might be a far more
interesting IPv4 experiment than a lot of the
technical projects, which should probably be moved to
IPv6 by now (or if they haven't, would they please
hurry up?  I'd like more stuff to work).
