The idea:
* ZeroNet site should be accessible with both `http://127.0.0.1:43110/...` and `http://.../` via a proxy.
* When accessing zites with a proxy, the pseudo-TLD `.zeronet` is used:
`http://
* When accessing zites with `http://127.0.0.1:43110/`, the `.zeronet` part can be ommitted and is ignored by the core if present.
These point to the same site:
* `http://127.0.0.1:43110/` - the classic way.
* `http://127.0.0.1:43110/.zeronet` - for similar look&feel to the proxied addresses.
* The second-level domains are handled by plugins.
* * *
The proposed second-level domain schemes:
* **Namecoin domains**: `.bit.zeronet`
* Proxied: http://Talk.ZeroNetwork.bit.zeronet
* Non-proxied: http://127.0.0.1:43110/Talk.ZeroNetwork.bit
* **Cert-based**, as proposed in https://github.com/HelloZeroNet/ZeroNet/issues/1696: `.user.zeronet`
* Proxied: http://geekless.zeroid.user.zeronet, http://geekless.kxoid.user.zeronet
* Non-proxied: http://127.0.0.1:43110/geekless.zeroid.user, http://127.0.0.1:43110/geekless.kxoid.user
* **Opennic-based** (https://github.com/HelloZeroNet/ZeroNet/issues/104): `.opennic.zeronet`
* Proxied: http://example.libre.opennic.zeronet
* Non-proxied: http://127.0.0.1:43110/example.libre.opennic
* **Onion-based** (the protocol proposal hasn't been published yet): `.onion.zeronet`
* Proxied: http://nd6bvylhggfd41g.onion.zeronet
* Non-proxied: http://127.0.0.1:43110/nd6bvylhggfd41g.onion

Research direction
No implementation files, tests, or entry points are named. Read the linked discussions and related issues first, then inspect the existing proxy, core, and plugin handling; done would mean the proposed naming scheme is agreed and implemented consistently for proxied and non-proxied addresses.
