hope for their sake it's just 1 router :) and 2 transits ... if they
have internal bgp setup (more than one router in their peering/transit
edge) it's  going to cause them some pain :(

(at least with only 1 router and 2 bgp peers you could hope to static
route around the maintenance event)

o Should some form of 'scrape routeviews before assignment' happen at
the RIR? (if you don't like o RV, pick another 2-3 sources of data)

See above ... It seems sensible to check existing data sources, if
that can be automated easily enough?
