I might be mistaken, but I believe that IANA sends root updates to Verisign

In that light, we would need an EPP extension before IANA can adopt a
policy to allow DNAME in the root.

I don't understand why you think it would have to be in that order. It seems to me that even if DNAMEs in the root are a good idea (which they aren't, but whatever) we can't invent an appropriate EPP extension until we understand what it needs to do.

A lot of the discussion around this has been related to 2LD DNAMEs, also a bad idea, and for which I've seen no demand.

This answer just confirms my main point.  Whether to put DNAMEs in the
root is primarily a policy question.  Even if you thought it was a good
idea (which I still don't, see next message) there is no point to inventing
an EPP extension unless and until there is a policy that lets them use it.

If merely having the EPP feature was all it took, we'd have sunrise and
redemption periods in the root.

Perhaps I missed this upthread somewhere, but before we start talking
about EPP extensions for managing the root, shouldn't we talk about using
EPP to manage the root?  Last I heard (May 2017, Spain) there was work
underway for a custom API for TLD->IANA changes that does not involve EPP.
I imagine shifting gears to replace that with an EPP interface would be a
significant undertaking by this time.
