[jdev] JEP-114 - what is the "component name"?

I've been reading again the JEP-114 (Jabber Component Protocol) since I 
wanted to check the formal definition of what is called the "component 
name". In the JEP I see that the example is using 'plays.shakespeare.lit'. 
Since in general the spec is using 'shakespeare.lit' as the hostname of the 
server I assumed that the "component name" is formed by the component 
subdomain + the server hostname. So my question is: should "component name" 
be of the form <subdomain>.<server-hostname>? Is it correct to just use 
<subdomain>?

Thanks,
