Just as a data-point: many networks received their allocation before 
the RIPE DB supported route6 objects (thus couldn't add them, and 
have forgotten to do so after the support was added) or simply 
haven't known route6 objects should be added too.  I believe in many 
cases the operators would be willing to add the objects if approached 
with a gentle reminder.

Maybe someone should send such reminders?  It'd maybe be best if RIPE 
NCC could do this, but I'm not sure if such operational checks are 
within their current toolbox..
