Yes. A now dead Swiss(?) academic got paid by the ITU to promote this idea 4-5 
years ago after he presented it at WSIS and IGF. The concept was to "increase 
competition" in the DNS name space. Which would have the not entirely 
accidental side effect of breaking USG/ICANN hegemony on Internet governance.

His web sites and projects are no longer active, so I don't have current URLs 
for his papers and slideware. google found this though:

Be sure to have lots of padding beneath your chin to soften the impact when 
your jaw drops if you read this.
