There isn't really a generic "internet" one, that fills in the missing purposes. e.g. If only you could register "nicename.inet" and not have to care whether it was commercial, personal, had content logically related to the domain name, was somehow local or generally world-wide.
Why are domains needed at all? Why can't there just be a requirement for a unique name?
