Some RSPs actually place a database between ours and theirs - you can only
login to their manage interface because you don't really have the password
to ours.
You might wish to make a statement in the 'agreement' the user 'signs' to
notify them that you are reserving the right to control changes made to
the domain name. This can help you block domains that aren't paid, and
even prevent changes within a certain period (to keep them from
registering with you for cheap and jumping ship, for example).
