Well, personally, I agree that the Administrative Contact only should have 
authorization for such a move.

Okay, I know in the US I can walk into any bank and have paperwork 
notarized for no fee.

I have no idea what the situation is outside the US as I've never used the 
service while traveling abroad.  It would be helpful if those who know 
could add to.

I am absolutely opposed to the idea that any Registrar would not require 
authorization from their client to modify any information concerning any 
domain registered between them.  The power must reside in the consumer's 
hands within this policy.
