Perhaps these should be considered for informative text in an I-D.
i think we are missing something more basic, a clear, simple, concise,
terse, and rigorous definition of the semantics of a roa.
then, and only then, can we start to discuss the need/use of a boa.

from the roa draft:
2.1.3.2. eContent
The content of a ROA identifies a single AS that has been authorized
by the address space holder to originate routes and a list of one or
more IP address prefixes that will be advertised. If the address
space holder needs to authorize multiple ASes to advertise the same
set of address prefixes, the holder issues multiple ROAs, one per AS
number.
and
4. Security Considerations
.... The purpose of a ROA is to convey authorization for an AS to
originate a route to the prefix(es) in the ROA.
these are basic, clear, simple, concise, terse, and rigorous
definition of the semantics of a roa.
