You have a dev box on your network called 'test1'. You can host a dev environment there and navigate to it at http://test1 http://test1 . Works great, until somebody registers 'test1' as a gTLD. Then you get namespace conflicts.

That way "test1" is a local name (relative to the default search path), and "test1." is a TLD. In theory, that's already the way it works, except that most software treats the trailing period as optional.
