I suggest ISO should define an international trans network numbering

The ISO is already in charge of NSAP addresses. I don't see how
importing the complexity that exists there into IP is going to help us.
This would relieve IETF from these user, political, etc. oriented
inapropriate controversies.
There is very little, if any, controversy in IPv6 addressing. Ask for
address space and you'll get it. Moving addressing issues to a new
organization would in fact create controversy as it is virtually
guaranteed that address policies and routing policies will fall out of
alignment, to the detriment of the net as a whole.
