While I think this extension is well written and valuable I do have to question if a standards track is appropriate?

The competing version of this is the UnitedTLD "Price Categories Guide" http://rightside.co/fileadmin/downloads/policies/Rightside_Price_Categories.pdf which has not been formally published. However its in active use by Rightside, Donuts and Domain Name Services (that I know of) meaning that around 190 new TLDs are using it or about to do so.

[SAH] I’d rather focus on number of operators/implementations than number of TLDs.

We can’t do nothing because some operators are doing their own thing and documenting their own extensions outside the IETF. We should focus on doing the best we can with what we have.
