The IETF (well, the IAB) has administrative control over the contents of the ARPA zone. I do not know in practice whether this extends to the machinery of how the zone is provisioned. The operation of the zone is carried out by PTI, I think. It is distributed to its authoritative servers (which are also root servers) in a process that is similar in some respects to the way the root zone is managed. I would drop a note to Kim Davies and ask his advice if you want to make some kind of progress. While it seems perfectly plausible to make this kind of change by way of a published RFC with IAB review, it's not at all clear to me that such a heavyweight approach is necessary.
