-------------------------------------------------------------------

It's not allowed as a top-level, it's only usable in local scenarios (either 
specific to a host or within a private DNS zone) hence why I'm suggesting it be 
classified as local.

As mentioned on the wiki page:
{quote}This allows the use of these names for either documentation purposes or 
in *local testing scenarios.*{quote}

Specifically for our scenario-- we use .test domains (say site1.test, 
site2.test, etc) for testing locally in development environments and on our CI 
servers. They are most often set up via /etc/hosts. As the server/IP the .test 
name points to is not always on the local host we prefer not to use local* to 
define it.
