Have you ever built a prototype of this draft and done some test? If so, what 
is the extra time delay caused by it compared with normal DNS resolving? Maybe 
that is another problem.

No, certainly there are issues in general.  There are maximum lengths
not just for a label, but for the number of labels.  So not only is
there size constraints for the size of an individual label (and there
are ways around that), but there are constraints on the number of labels
we can use (and there is no way around some of those issues;  You always
have to append a suffix which means you're always reducing the maximum
label count by the suffix length.  Which in the above is 2).
