This may be a very naive suggestion, but instead of a IP Clearinghouse
and GPML list being maintained as a separate process outside of the
proposed v2 of the gTLD Application Guidebook, have a category of gTLD
which trademark holders can apply for.

Call it a trademark/brand name gTLDs category. With this category of
gTLDs, applicants cannot operate a gTLD, but pay to ensure that the
gTLD is NOT introduced.

Such applicants would then go through the same process as applicants
for new gTLDs.(the administrative completeness check, initial 
evaluation, objection filing, extended evaluation, dispute resolution, etc).
