Yes, I have to agree with the principle behind this!  Perhaps when we vote for 
new TLDs, we should put more consideration towards whether we individually would 
ever use a domain in the new zone, rather than only considering if we agree with 
the concept behind the proposal.  With this in mind, the votes would probably 
show more accurately if there will be any use of the TLD beyond what the 
original owner wants to set up.
