Now this is certainly not kosher.

I previously posted the fact that a registrant could administer his/her
domain from any RSP's site. All the responses were in the vein of so what? -
no harm done.

This issue though may put that in a new light. You are looking at a
Pandora's box or can of worms here.

Unsuspecting customers are going to get caught out. You will have
unintentional transfers, payments to one RSP but renewals charged to another
RSP, customers billed for more or less than they were expecting - I am sure
theare are more.

I would suggest that there should be a conscious tranfer from one RSP to
another RSP and not an automatic transfer if renewal is done from whatever
site.

Nope - the RSP sponsoring the renewal would.
