An application that understands a non-DNS protocol already is compatible with that naming scheme. An application that doesn't understand a non-DNS protocol will fail on the name just as it would fail on a DNS name that does not exist. There is no reason for this document to suggest to non-DNS protocols what to do; the developers of those protocols are aware of the DNS and can make their own design choices based on the pros and cons they see, without us. --Paul Hoffman
