Agreed.

I.e. the registrar do have even in the case of a thick registrar a mirror of the registry database. To be able to keep these two in sync it is very very very important for a registrar to know:

- What operations can make the registry side change

- How is that detected

- How to do the sync so the two versions end up the same again

The ROID is very important for this.

For registrant, nope.

P.S. Hmm...I would like each registrar to describe those three things...that could be a useful exercise! :-)
