While I agree with this in principle, I do believe that it's in conflict with free speech regulations, and no matter how well intended the process is, the right wing loonies will use any method they can to isolate and limit access to legal adult content simply because it doesn't match their philosophical beliefs.
AJ and I were tossing about the idea of an "industry cooperative" venture that ran a nonprofit .xxx top level domain registry (this, of course, assuming you could get the industry to agree on anything, and that you could keep the sleazebags from subverting the honest intentions of the process.) While I think it's a nice thought, I think the problem with the right wing loonies would doom it to failure, not to mention the unrealistic notion of getting cooperation from the industry as a whole.
