I'm mostly concerned about signatures for integrity check and sender
identity check. PGP and its derivatives, for example (here in Italy we have
the PEC system, a government standard to send emails with integrated
integrity check, it would be broken).

Any delivery, with an integrity signature system.

Still we'll present to the end user a possibly broken URI, exposing them to
phishing and other nasty things.

If using local hierarchies is somewhat needed, I'll default the currently
existing TLDs on the Earth, while defining new hierarchies for the other
planets. "org." will be on the Earth, "org.mars." on Mars. It would
introduce some asymmetry, giving the Earth a special place, but Earth is
indeed special.
