This doesn't have to be a router-based, real-time solution.  And in my opinion it shouldn't be.  This is an OSS role and could easily be handled behind the scenes.  Using RPSL tools like rtconfig and regularly pushing out prefix lists that have changed would not be difficult to implement nor onerous on the equipment in the data path.

As Geoff said, getting a source you can trust is the tricky bit.  And I agree with Macca, the RIR's are an obvious place to start looking for a solution.

One thing is for sure.  Somehow it needs to be forced, or it won't be done.
There're many companies that won't see the work as counting toward the bottom 
line (so, it's unnecessary work in their opinion) and there're those individuals 
that just plain don't want to do the extra work.  If it's forced then it has to
be done or your routes don't propagate.
