Please note that this document describes a recommendation for a best current practice to support bootstrapping of entity queries - it isn't a protocol proposal. The idea is to add structure to entities in much the same way that information containing in domain names can be used to bootstrap domain queries. The registry described in the document is not an extension or modification of the registry used for domains. Consider what's there a proposal for discussion. If it makes more sense to revise the structure of the registry used for domain queries, we can explore that option and see if it makes more sense. The registry question is the only one I currently have enqueued for working group discussion. Please review the document and share your comments with the list. If we don't identify any other significant issues this one may be able to move through quickly since the practice it describes is basically one that is already being used by at least some of the RIRs.
