i think it's a corner case in the registry / registrar / registrant (RRR) 
model, as you say. what might be done here is that ICANN or DNS-OARC or the 
registry of last resort (ROLR) or perhaps all three in cooperation, could 
jointly operate an anonymizing reporting service to accept real time reports 
of lame delegations from participating full resolvers.

in this case open source resolver makers such as nlnetlabs, cznic, isc, 
powerdns, and perhaps some commercial resolver makers like nominum and 
microsoft, and perhaps even some of the so-called "public dns" providers 
(quad-this, quad-that, etc) could report delegation problems they discover, in 
real time, to be then sliced and diced and trended and published and 
especially made available to registrants, registrars, and registries for 
policy-appropriate remedial action.

this is off-topic for the draft at hand, but it's something a strong mature 
distributed naming system ought to have in it. we finally have enough CPU and 
enough bandwidth and enough competing cooperators (and enough cooperating 
competitors) that it's practical to build something like this.
