It's time we talked about adding support for buying names in other namespaces to the browser.

Yes! Let's support buying other namespaces in the browser!

There are also a couple of other places where we hardcode in the .id. The /v1/search endpoint comes to mind. We need to make our products work cross-namespace! Excited for this feature!

How will this work? Will you hit up the bsreg:// URL in the zone file of the parent domain?
