I propose that Mozilla submit comments saying what a terrible idea this
is. Something along these lines:

Is anyone interested in drafting something, perhaps taking inspiration
from comments submitted by others? I would expect it to cover the
unreliability and security concerns arising from the conflict with the
use of dotless names as internal names. For bonus points, talk about the
problems with creating TLS certificates for dotless names.
Out of curiosity, would you please expand a little bit on why this is a
bad idea?
Thanks!
