Uh, the flatness of the namespace is an artifact of non-technical policy
making. It isn't something that anyone other than the direct beneficiaries
have an interest in. It brand management. We don't do that. Other bodies
do.

I don't care if .com can't be signed, searched, inverted, hashed, browned,
or stir-fried. Defect of implementation is an implementation issue.

Cheers,
Eric
