That is already published in DNS:
pabs@chianamo ~ $ dig -t txt mentors.debian.net | grep TXT
;mentors.debian.net. IN TXT
mentors.debian.net. 3593 IN TXT "Christoph Haas <haas@debian.org>"
mentors.debian.net. 3593 IN TXT "PGP 9B26 F48E 6F2B 0A3F 7E33 E6B7
095E 77C5 79CC 6586"

Agreed.
Also, for domains that are not CNAMEs, there is the possibility for
the registrant to document real contact points in DNS TXT records:
