If my goal were to guarantee that people continue to ignore whatever process we invent and just squat on whatever name they like, this is exactly how I would ensure that happens. The cost of writing and publishing an RFC is considerable, and the benefit to someone with a non-DNS naming system rounds to zero. No, we cannot promise that other people won't squat on their name. If it's a good name, it'll get squatted. If not, it won't, but then why waste time screwing around arguing with the IETF about it?
