Is anyone claiming this? If so, that'd be really silly given the contents of 
the .ARPA zone is:

as112.arpa.
e164.arpa.
in-addr-servers.arpa.
in-addr.arpa.
ip6-servers.arpa.
ip6.arpa.
ipv4only.arpa.
iris.arpa.
uri.arpa.
urn.arpa.

Of those, only two are used for PTR requests.

I'll admit I'm a bit confused: what would be in such a registry?

Truth be told, I sort of like the "home.arpa" idea -- seems to dodge a lot of 
layer 9 stuff (unless, of course, the whole point is to try to resolve layer 9 
issues).
