there are tlds with top level wildcards that are needed and
in legitimate use.

verisign has not done anything strictly against spec.  this
is a social and business issue.  

all this noise and bluster is depressing.  it indicates that
we are in a very quickly maturing industry because a lot of
probably-soon-to-be-ex engineers have too much time on their
hands.
