They've been wringing their hands about security for a few years now, 
around this very issue.  Not saying they've gotten everything right, 
but I can't imagine the real testing work being done by the actual 
implementers (OS vendors) without the domains being officialized like
this.

They have a test root servers that I know they've used to test DNSSEC
and other such things. I assume they've been using them for this. How
much testing can they really do in such an environment?
