We had considered doing this early on, but the problem is that no sites actually own all of the eTLDs for their name, and most sites only own a small percentage of the available. Worse than that, the ones that aren't owned by the company are often phishing sites or worse. These are not the sites you want to be injecting into accidentally.
I can understand that with Google in particular, it would be nice to be able to say "all google sites". Unfortunately, there isn't a good and safe way to do this without listing out all of the domains manually.
