It's difficult because there is not universal support amongst registrars.  Once 
again the wheel gets stuck when the technical side meets the business side.  
Before someone says "switch registrar", it's usually not that easy and then 
becomes something resembling a full time project vs "just throwing a switch".

Edit a zone file vs "edit, run a script, upload some keys, roll some keys, do 
some other magic" is harder than edit a zone file.

This runs into the same friction issue that using PGP and other tools 
encounter.  It seems simple enough to most folks, but when you add in someone 
less-technical, it goes off the rails quickly.  I can't count the number of 
times someone emailed me their full keyring or private key when they meant 
public.  It's not as easy as you think it is.
