We, the co-authors, actually prefer producers to use a domain they own (because 
no chance on collisions with consumers from multiple producers). I've done a 
commit to express that more clearly. The new text is:

   ``It is RECOMMENDED to use a domain name owned by the catalog producer if possible, or 
if that is not possible use a name under a suitable name such as "invalid." 
[RFC6761].''

A name under a suitable name such as invalid would then be 
“example.com.invalid” and not as it has now just “invalid” ?

Do you mean in the Catalog Zone Example appendix ( https://www.ietf.org/archive/id/draft-ietf-dnsop-dns-catalog-zones-09.html#appendix-A ) ?

The name used there is "catalog.invalid.", not just "invalid.".
You prefer "example.com.invalid" over "catalog.invalid"?

Or it could use “_catalog.example.com”  ?

Yes, if we add a sentence that the fictional organization producing this catalog is "example.com", then we could use that too yes.
