I would not release many "within a short period of time". I'd set up a clear and predictable schedule for new ones coming on stream. Say, one a month for the foreseeable future. People would quickly be trained to expect new TLDs. More importantly the speculative value would drop to near zero, cutting cybersquatting.
I think it's likely that some registry somewhere will fail someday. That's why good data escrow is one of the ICANN rules I support, and why I'm so puzzled it hasn't been put into practice. It seems almost certain to me that were a registry to go under, its client base would be an asset that other registries would want to buy, so the odds are good that clients would not be harmed at all.
