These seems to be an assumption on this thread that- identifiers at the same domain name get recycled often (e.g. example.com/jim)
- domain names don't get recycled often (e.g example.com itself)
I would suggest that any proposed solution needs to be able to deal with domain names as well that aren't being renewed, and picked up by somebody else. Somebody who isn't necessarily continuing any kind of naming scheme the previous owner had in place, or who is actively hostile with respect to the previous owner.
There's a whole industry out there recycling domain names -- which proves that this is an issue.
