Sounds like you need a template based configuration management system and
better automation more than you need to inflict an ad-hoc standardization of
additional communities on the world.

In my comments, it’s more about avoiding de facto “standards” in favor of
having actual “standards” or following existing actual “standards”. There are
RFCs that cover what the OP wants. There is an IANA well-known Communities
registry that can be expanded to record any additional functionality

Yes, but with large communities, that’s called RFC-8092 and in general,
RFC-8642 has some good data.
There’s also BGP extended communities (RFC-7153 and the IANA registry it
creates).
Creating an ad hoc BCP vs. using the existing RFC process seems ill-advised.

Groups that have such things I can only presume do not do a good job
of periodically going through and auditing their IP allocations or, if
they do, then they don't do a good enough job of cleaning up all the
details.
