As a matter of _protocol_, however, what you asked for devolves to
"more than two".  Once we're at that point, the size of the set
doesn't really matter except for the question of where the trade-off
will be for performance reasons.

Moreover, you're not the only one asking.  This is certainly not a WG
devoted to solving the problem of how to make things easier for the
.gr registry.  Whatever we do has to be a significant improvement for
many different kinds of uses, or it's not worth changing the protocol,
even if that means you lose.  Sorry.
