I would not see great harm in an "alternate" root where the owners would 
automatically vacate within 24 hours any domain that was subsequently added 
to the ICANN roots; if changes to the baseline automatically meant that the 
alternate roots were changed to conform, most of the potential harm of 
alternate roots would be alleviated.

Neither would I see much point in such a construction.
