Seems to me a straightforward solution to the ambiguity of UK addresses
is for the uk nameservers to simply map the entire uk string as subdomains
in a global .gb domain.  For example,

	uk.ac.man.cs	would become	ac.man.cs.gb
	uk.co.wombat			co.wombat.gb

which unambiguously lets the UK keep their addressing system AND share in
the global DNS.

Did I miss something?  Or is this too obvious?
