 After an initial "that's too cutesy" reaction, I'm becoming more convinced
that John's suggestion ("policy super domain") might indeed be the right
sort of solution - along with clearly citing 7489 in the intro and abstract
("If you don't know what DMARC is, go read RFC 7489 before coming back
here." or similar).

I agree.  Hence my suggestion last week to tear out all of the TLD
stuff or move it into an appendix and just say this is the name above
the Organizational domain which you can find into RFC 7489.

The reality is that any of the 8000 domains in the PSL could publish a
PSD record, and I would not want to try to explain to anyone in the
IESG why most of them are there.  So let's stay as far away from that
as possible.  Policy Super Domain, remember?

R's,
John
