Dan, OpenNIC does "not support self-named or private Top-Level
Domains". (http://wiki.opennicproject.org/AlternateNICs)

I vote no on your proposal, Angélica. The filter is a good idea, but
people could get confused as they might think that our roots are fully
compatible with each other. However, behavior is not well-defined and
we might slide into chaos. Also, I think second-level registration
should be required.
