wouldnt it be possible to have a dnsserver for hidden tor services, given them more "natrual" names?

Yes that is one of the uses of namecoin.

While there is a proposal for a separate "tor/" namespace, https://dot-bit.org/Namespace:Tor

.onion addresses can also be specified as a "tor" value field in the regular d/ namespace as shown here:

I think it would be possible for BitDNS to be a completely separate network and separate block chain, yet share CPU power with Bitcoin.  The only overlap is to make it so miners can search for proof-of-work for both networks simultaneously.
