Then you haven't been reading the DNSOP working group's mailing list - the IETF certainly cares. I recommend searching for ".onion", "special-use", "sutld", or "alt-tld" on their ML viewer [0] and reading the (extensive) back-history of these discussions. See below for a link to my earlier comments on this tor-dev thread [1], as well as several IETF drafts you may wish to read and comment on [2-3].
