Wouldn't it at least make  sense to require that the .gprs

I don't think registering local TLDs with IANA is a good idea. But if
they want to be certain are no conflicts, potentially they could switch
to using different CLASS (i.e. like HESIOD is locally used in MIT) and request some kind of provisional registration for that class in IANA.
