Rather than placing "alt" in the TLD position, I think it might be better as a scheme modifier: https+alt://... This is a common pattern for modifications to URI schemes (c.f. git+ssh://), and informs the software that this URI is special without overloading the DNS namespace.
How would this work in practice? * Would this require a re-registering of each and every URI scheme with +alt, and monitoring the URI scheme registry for new ones? (I'll note that git+ssh isn't registered.) * What is the value of +alt at this point? Why not use +gns or +onion or +eliotsfavoritenamespace? * How might or should this be reflected in the browser bar?That last question probably has no pat answer, which is okay so long as we are clear that it does not.
