Namecoin would make this pretty easy.  Last I checked the current
Namecoin domain name spec only supports round-robin DNS for IPv4/IPv6
and not Tor/I2P, but there's consensus that that will be changed soon
to allow round-robin for Tor and I2P as well.  Note that to my
knowledge there aren't any implementations of that feature yet.

Namecoin would also give you human-readable names.

(Also Namecoin isn't anonymous, which might or might not be a problem
depending on the use case.)
