.post is asking to be allowed to use 2nd level domains which match 
all of the TLDs. I presume that their specific interest is to be 
allowed to use the ccTLDs, giving them roots such as:
.ca.post
.uk.post
.au.post and so forth, although it would also include all of the 
gTLDs (presumably current and future). The current list is at 
http://data.iana.org/TLD/tlds-alpha-by-domain.txt.
