A more fundamental question that should be asked (in relation to domain
names) is:

    Should an administrative contact for a domain, be contacted
    regarding administrative matters?

If the answer is yes, should administrative contacts know about the
domain? Should the administrative contract be the ISP or agent if the
domain name holder is clueless? If so, how do you prevent abuse of this
particularly with regard to ISPs and agents who aren't amenable to
this being changed later?
