Google Wants to Create a Dotless Domain Called "Search"..?

I'm hoping google is doing this for m2m and not human interaction, but I could be wrong.

I just envision years of re-educating grandparents and less technical users and I'm dreading it.

Cheers,

Would this not open the door for others to claim they need a word as a tld (cisco = http://routers or Al Gore http://internets), and how would that be handled by most modern(ish) browsers and devices?
