I'd be in that. Where do I sign?

Or let's take this one step further:

How about forming a "reseller's cooperative" which then becomes a
registrar. This registrar would only accept registration requests
from member resellers and would carry on no other business apart
from that. No hosting. No direct-to-public registrations. Etc.

Only catch would be... how to stop member resellers abusing what
is I assume enhanced access a registrar has to the AusRegistry
database. Apart from the obvious "one strike and you're out".

Oh, and funding it :)
