Agree, the validation reconsidered will require a more precise
definition in RFC6482, something like:

The IP address delegation extension [RFC3779] is present in the
end-entity (EE) certificate (contained within the ROA), and the whole
collection of IP address prefix(es) in the ROA is contained within the
set of IP addresses specified by the EE certificate's IP address
delegation extension that are valid according to the
[validation-reconsidered] checks.

There might be other places that may read ambiguously in light of
validation reconsidered. The thing is that we now have a bunch of
validity concepts: a valid certificate, a valid resource within an
extension of a valid certificate, a valid ROA (and we do not extent this
further to a valid resource within a ROA).
