While there are still a few ccTLDs that is still being run by registries based outside the region, I think that decision making process should remain with the respective countries. So such situation described above is a bottleneck that needs to be avoided at ICANN level; .NGA for instance should not be run under the GNSO. If the 3 letter TLD is to be opened as gTLD then it would be preferred to reserve the corresponding country codes for ccTLDs.

That said, there is still the question of whether current ccTLD registries will be willing to maintain an extra tld.

Perhaps, but that's their call. They could always put a park page there. ;-) - Evan
