Hello, the author of Pkarr that uses Mainline DHT here, you can go to app.pkarr.org and put your npub and relays and whatever you want to put in a DNS packet (because that is what it is).
The only problem that prevented Nostr from adopting Pkarr despite my constant advocacy for it for almost two years; the root identity HAS to be ed25519 key, this is not my decision this is what the biggest DHT in the world decided to use decade ago (see estimate of number of nodes here relay.pkarr.org).
So yeah I would love it if Nostr supports Pkarr as a root identity or at least as much as it supports ICANN with Nip05... but that is up to client developers.
