Ok, good!.

In this case all we need is something that does not encourage the creation of these names by not following published, transparent guidelines.

It doesn’t feel right to me rewarding bad behavior.

Thanks again.

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.
