But why make it more complicated than it has to be for the customer or the ISP? All the RIR's and LIR's are setup to handle this sort of delegation. This is day-to-day operations for them and they will help ISP's get this right if the ISP asks for help. It also removes the ISP's servers from the reverse resolution process so there is one less thing to break. The customer still needs to go through the ISP to change the servers so the ISP still has control. The original request was for how to do this correctly and in my book that is to swip the delegation.
