These are the relevant info BIPs. NODE_GETUTXO https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0064.mediawiki
NODE_BLOOM: https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/master/bip-0111.mediawiki The relevant code is here: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/src/protocol.h#L228 The NODE_GETUTXO bit was included even though it is not supported by core. (It is one of XT's features). I think you need to be able to reasonably claim that the bit is useful and will have actual users, before you can claim a bit. You can also claim one of the free for all bits 24 - 31, but that is supposed to be only temporary. Giving a link to "thin blocks" would help promote discussion about its merits.
