I think the whole idea of getting into an escalating technical war with Verisign is extremely bad. Your suggestion only makes sense if you expect Verisign to make changes to evade technical solutions. Each such change by Verisign will cause more breakage. Verisign will either provide a way to definitively, quickly, and easily tell that a domain is not registered or Verisign will badly break COM and NET. DS
