IRR for IX peers

so i have an AS (3130) which peers at the SIX (RSs and some direct).

in the hope that leak detectors such as artemis would stop false
positives when they see my prefixes announced customer cones of SIX
peers, i want to add the SIX peers to my aut-num: policy.

export:  to    AS-SEATTLEIX-RS-CLIENTS  announce AS-RG-SEA

seems clear and obvious.  but

import:  from  AS-SEATTLEIX-RS-CLIENTS  accept AS-SEATTLEIX-RS-CLIENTS

would seem to allow bill's bait and sushi to announce microsoft to me.
and i am not sure that expansive `from` clause is actually allowed.

what are others in this space doing?

[ and let's not descend into the rat-hole of dissing the IRR.  i have
  heard of this RPKI thing and might try it some day. ]
