One aspect of this concept of moving a registry from one operator to 
another (as proposed by Kent's proposal) is that, in many political 
jurisdictions, the losing operator will have major responsibilities for 
employees it no longer requires.  In lots of places you can't just 
discharge employees because you lost a contract.
