There is not much that can be done after the fact, I agree. However, there is something that can be done before: provide a safe place in the DNS tree where people can exist without colliding with the rest of the tree. We can't prevent people from ignoring it and keep using whatever name they want, but at least we would have provided a way to play nice. In that spirit, efforts like .alt and friends are a step in the right direction.
