I do agree with Martin that an option to gather the current account balance 
without actually performing a transaction would be great. While tying it to the 
execution of a billable transaction sounds great from the business perspective 
;) I don't think it's very practical.

I do agree that the "check" command would be a viable option - even though, 
technically, it would be information of an object that is not tied to the 
registrar balance at all (But we do have that "independent" information in the 
response to the transform commands as well).

Maybe an optional attribute in the "fee:check" element itself? ("balance=yes")?
Maybe a "balance" pseudo-command-Value for the "fee:command" element?
Somewhere in the greeting/hello Process?

Neither of the options we came up with is particularly elegant - does anybody 
have better ideas?
