And indeed, following up on that thought- it occured to me that it would
be best just to go and delete those entries. (They were evidently
instantiated by the prior registrant, probably a year or two ago..)
There doesn't seem to be any way to remove them though; there's no
"remove" button, and simply clearing the field and hitting "modify"
gives me an error.
