Perhaps we need a registry to manage this list… IANA perhaps? with a process on how to manage it that runs in coordination between IETF and ICANN.
We already have a registry, called the special-use domain names registry:
http://www.iana.org/assignments/special-use-domain-names/special-use-domain-names.xhtml
Well, even worse, what happens if <name-your-next-OS-vendor> decides to create a new dns-like protocol that uses .foo, does that mean that we should automatically block it?
No. We can add it to the special-use domain name registry if the IETF has consensus to do so, but there's nothing automatic about it, as Christian Grothoff can testify.
