With the current trend of combining the address and search bar I doubt browsers will let you go to e.g. http://lol when you type "lol" in the bar.
In fact I just checked that typing "ac" in the Chrome omnibox makes a Google search for "ac" as I would expect. So the value of having an A record on a TLD is limited.
Edit: Somehow I missed the bar on top of the search results that says "Did you mean to go to http://ac " so there's some value after all.
