Multiple subjects were covered and I had to input some data, so I will be doing 
different topics by replying to this email so that they are threaded together. 
You may wish to read all of them for context before replying to any.

I only took a quick read of some documentation I currently have on hand for 
some registries, and this is far from exhaustive. I am not putting the registry 
names as I do not think that changes anything, but you will have to trust my 
word that I am not making up cases. Otherwise, the registry that recognize 
themselves could also speak up and say if they would deploy this extension.

Like I said, to be a success, this extension needs to be widespread. It needs 
to be made in such a way that it can encompass very different cases. And for 
the one point specifically raised (control over the contact IDs, while the RFC 
may say there are completely under control of registrar, in practice for many 
ccTLDs registries it is the registry that choose the ID at creation, 
irrespective to what the registrar asks for), it needs to be easy to derive it 
separately in an extension for deviations from base.

In fact, here is a generic comment: I think there is already things belonging 
in an extension that are indeed in the base document, so that should be split.
For example, about contact types, while it is obvious that there are other ones 
on the wild, RFC5731 defines only 3, and not "custom". So custom should be 
dropped from core document. Same for privacy/proxy these concepts are not in 
RFC5733, and should be handled in extensions.
