Personally, I consider naming systems developed outside the IETF a problem.

There should be no register, because they should not exist.

So any hint that there is a process for non-IETF naming systems should
be removed.

Naming at the root of the name space should develop very slowly. Slow
enough that everybody (local name resolution, but also security mechanisms)
can adapt.

These systems should be considered carefully for all implications before they
are deployed. And not just pop up.
