Can you conceive of a scenario where a registry might use two different
clearinghouses during the same launch? That would be exceptional in my
experience.

Assuming that there is a genuine problem, then this seems like a good
solution. I would ask that the attribute be optional though.

I look forward to seeing your patch! You can fork the git repo from
