Do you meant to imply that a separate block of addresses should be
set aside for non-globally-routable globally-unique addresses?

I'm not sure what we gain by doing that, as opposed to setting aside
private address space from any global prefix by filtering it at
administrative boundaries...

seems fairly easy.  the hard part is the wordsmithing.

- addresses with this prefix range MUST NOT be advertised to other networks.

- advertisements for addresses with this prefix range that are received from
other networks SHOULD be filtered

- traffic with source or destination addresses in this prefix range
SHOULD be filtered from external connections unless there is an explicit
agreement with the peer to accept traffic for a specific range of addresses.

Multihoming is a problem, but the multihoming issue seems orthogonal
to site-locals.
