I think this would be a very bad thing. If some independent
organization
wants to provide that service, fine. Allowing registrars to provide it
allows for the possibility of a conflict of interest if any policies
ever
come to fruition to allow revocation of resources for bad contact data.
Think about it, if you allow the registrar (who has the ultimate
obligation
to pull the domain) to instead obscure their contact for a fee, then,
you
have essentially eliminated any such protection.
Godaddy seems to be offering this service already -
