So, the idea would be that a player from one origin gets a domain key and
(possibly) licenses for the domain and then this information can be used by
players from other origins that are part of the same domain ?

How would this fit into the 'same origin' web security model ? What would be
the mechanism for origins to prove that they are allowed access to keys /
licenses associated with a specific domain ?
