Apple did it for .local, you're welcome to do the same. RFC 6761 do
not seem to describe criterias for accepting/rejecting special TLD
registrations. If one were to ask, for instance, proofs of actual
deployment, .onion would provide them easily and .pony could not.

Noone talked about the DNS. Like the mDNS of .local, they are
different protocols and that's why they require special TLD.
