Maybe we can experiment with the EID-prefix block 2001:5::/32 from RFC 7954/7955 to allocate sub-blocks from large regions of the world. Yes, geographical allocations without the issue of the past, since EIDs are not injected into the underlay routing and are not based on Internet topology. Do this first and then decide which, say continent block is registered to a regional mapping system. And if an ID needs to register to multiple mapping systems. The mapping systems should considered to be relatively local in scope and may overlap. This could help mitigate DoS attacks to a smaller (but still scalable) part of the infrastructure.
