The problem of cybersquatting of oblique domains is, I believe, described
and addressed in tag URI scheme definition [RFC4151], which I think is
something rather similar to the constructs used for HTML microdata.  I think
that document is relevant not only to this discussion but to the whole
concept.
IMHO,
