I think a registry should *never* discard contact or other objects that
are sponsored by a registrar.

We as registrars keep our records, and if the registry deletes stuff, we
need to know it is deleted to update our records.

So if contacts are orphaned, registries should provide the registrars with
good lists of orphaned contacts and stimulate them to clean up their own
mess...
