There are no "other legitimate needs".
There are lobbies within ICANN. Outside of ICANN, in the pre-ICANN and the
operational net community, two of those lobbies, "intellectual property"
and "law enforcement" are broadly considered illegitimate.
See Leslie Daigle's rework of rfc954 that just ended IETF-wide LC on 6/30
on the first of those two lobbies.

See the IAB's summary of the consensus of the RAVEN list on the second
of those two lobbies. While that statement is specific to intercept, and
policy neutral, the requirement for a pervasive access mechanism to some
network critical database(s) with access and management plane issues so
similar to the MEGACO problem, the technical consensus seems to me to be
predictable. When "warrentless" and "free speech" are added in at least
one jurisdiction, the policy complications are evident.

Welcome to the War of the Lobbies.
