You could create an SRV record...
_telnet._tcp.foo.com 86400 IN SRV 10 5 2323 host.foo.com
https://www.cloudflare.com/learning/dns/dns-records/dns-srv-record/
However, it's on the client to actually support this... Might be
interesting if web browsers supported this as well, to work around port
blocking restrictions without having to specify a given port.
Also, an interesting thing to possibly add to a dyndns service/host for
BBS usage.
DM?
