Intrinsic to such a system is a unique root. It's the only way to ensure there's a universally consistent name space, something that's so self-evident it should not need further exposition. Any proposal for "multiple roots" by definition violate that fundamental principle. QED. It is also unclear what requirements or operating conditions lie behind this draft. So unless the WG has a better understanding of the problem the draft intends to solve, it is not known from a technical or engineering perspective if the proposed approach satisfies the preconditions that motivated the production of this draft. I suggest we ask the authors of this draft to come back when they have clarified the problem that apparently needs solving and they have devised a scheme which provides the innovation in the name space they appear to need and is consistent with RFC2826.
