My suggestion is that I don't mind (virtually) unrestricted moves of addresses 
to different regions staying with the same organization. However, if we are to 
allow that, I want us to find a way that you can't merely use that as a way to 
move addresses out of flip protection to then flip them to another organization 
via an RIR with a less restrictive transfer policy.

So... If you transfer addresses to another region, keeping them in the same 
organization, no penalty. However, you are not allowed to subsequently transfer 
them (or other addresses in that region) to an external party for at least 12 
months.
