I completely agree in doubting this, Aliter. I think Walter himself is 
one person who should know: Walter, for your French sites do you usually 
NOT try blabla.fr after trying blabla.be? Do only you try blabla.be and 
then straight blabla.com? And I don't mean necessarily for your own 
needs, you're obviously a good English speaker, so it shouldn't really 
bother you much if you went straight to .com, which is typically in 
English, I mean when you try to find a reference in French in 
particular, for you, your family or your friends...
