Wouldn't these routing policies just need to be rewritten/modernized to
use extended communities instead of the old 32-bit communities? 64-bits
of ext-community ought to be enough for community-type, a 32-bit ASN, and
some policy instruction. Whether any routers support this, and in a
user-friendly display format, is the next question...and if not now, how
soon?

I agree that this does not sound like a solution, but at the same
time it did not move the community to reconsider their direction.
Question:
Large ISPs implement BGP communities with a convention of 16-bit ASN
followed by 16-bits of locally defined meaning, such as set local pref
to 80.
Does a comparable convention exist when dealing with 32-bit ASNs? If
not, what's the plan?
