Of course.  But it makes no sense to put the legal questions aside.  If 
the future IANA continues to be reasonable, which we all hope and expect 
it will, things will work fine and it doesn't matter who holds the 
trademark and domain.  If things get nasty, it stil doesn't matter, we're 
schrod no matter who holds the trademark and domain.
