That is true with *any* namespace.  The reason we are here is that we 
are attempting to engineer how to deal with conflicts with the DNS name 
space.  Also,  some conflicts may be okay in .ALT, depending on how it 
is used (imagine locally scoped well known names, for instance).  We 
really can't say since we're not setting engineering goals or standards 
for its use. So let's be quiet on the matter, other than to say that how 
others use ALT is out of scope.
