I like this draft and I think the sooner this becomes a reality the better.

Its seems like every other week there a new application that adds "dns
discoverability" via a made up root zone. Combine this with the new round
of TLD applications that are expected in the next year or two and its going
to get messy.

Just a thought, if the .home and .corp gTLD applications ever get formally
rejected by ICANN maybe they should get the same treatment as .alt? That's
the de facto state of affairs right now anyway.
