About a year ago I submitted this draft:

https://tools.ietf.org/id/draft-lewis-user-assigned-tlds-00.txt

It got no public response and I didn't push it further.  I have no real plans to, I just recalled the draft reading the email cited above.

(As far as Special Use Domain Names, I don't know if these two-letter strings as well as the numbers 0 through 255 [as top-level names] ought to be added.  That's a whole'nuther topic/wild idea that comes to mind now and then.)
