If the policies are developed through agreed bottom-up transparent processes and are appropriately followed there should be very little need for oversight of the IANA functions.  (I think we all agree that it is largely neutral and clerical - but important - function.)  The "oversight" or accountability ensuring mechanisms must be with the policy making entities, in other words ICANN.  We should be wary of overloading the IANA functions with "oversight" - if it is unnecessary it could be burdensome indeed detrimental to the performance of the function itself.
