Someone kindly reminded me that I should have been clearer about scope
here: the registries of which I'm speaking there are only the gTLDs.
Some ccTLDs have an agreement with ICANN but aren't subject to such
rules; also, of course, many (all?  I can't think of an exception at
the moment) sTLDs have a community arrangement that ensures the
registry and registrants have a direct relationship along side the
relationship between the registrant and registrar.

Sorry for any confusion,

A
