Victor is correct.  This draft introduces indirection through DNS.
Typically in the past when we've done indirection through DNS, we've not
changed the expected security principal that we're targeting.
It's that change  that significantly changes the security model.

It is not new with this draft and URI, it is done for example with SRV, and 
also MX.

That said, it is an important discussion to have, and I have waited for the DNS 
and Applications Community to talk about it.
