Nobody's mentioned the governaance issues, but speaking as someone who spends too much time hanging around ICANN, that will be a huge can of worms. If we tell them that DNAMEs are OK for one purpose, I can guarantee that the domain crowd will demand DNAMEs for other purposes, in particular to alias TLDs. There's already a ccTLD that consists of nothing but a DNAME, and now that the IETF has blessed top level DNAMEs, they must be fine for ICANN TLDs, too. Please, let us not go anywhere near there and abandon this unwise proposal.
