It would make sense to RIR links to RFCs or RIR portals. Furthermore, comments could be used to further an RIR. You could just use comments instead of a new link field.

Users should have at most a handful of RIRs defined. In 99% of cases, these will be actual RIRs and RFC 1918/6598. What additional information is worth storing about these objects?

RIR object owners, contacts, admins, links, etc.

It makes sense for when cross connects or circuits from third parties that may leverage public ip space.

I never saw your comment sorry! It only makes sense for firms that have a heavy crossconnect infrastructure where they are peering to multiple 3rd parties and need some additional metadata to validate prefixes are owned by said third party or associate prefixes to a tenant that they were not notified of.

The RIR only represents the top-level owner of a prefix. So for example, ARIN or RIPE, not Widgets, Inc. NetBox supports tenancy now for tracking per-prefix ownership.
