So a look up of registrar's by ID is, in my opinion, a feature to make adopting the protocol harder while not doing much benefit for the broader internet public. But host lookups by IP addresses does seem like something an internet user may want to trouble shoot problems.

I agree with this comment, however, what if the same IP is being used by multiple host names?, In my opinion, we should only allow for FQDN and registrar's name.

If we need to provide a ip-to-name or a id search of some sort, we should do so in the 'searchable interface' instead.
