Exactly.  This is the Internet, remember?  Even a mostly-obvious statement like
"ISPs should prevent their customers from leaking rfc1918-sourced addresses" will
start a flamefest.  So the *lack* of a flame-fest regarding *any* action taken
by ICANN should tell you something about the perception of ICANN - even the
majority of net.loons have learned it's not worth the effort....
