How will the reseller be able to determine the "renewal applied state" of a
UK domain? Only through the API?

Please note that there are certain attributes of a domain - notably the
current expiration date - which can only be obtained through the API if the
username/password of the domain are known, making it impossible to develop
API-based renewal notice systems on the reseller side without resorting to
scripting the RWI. Will "renewal applied state" be another one of those
attributes?

Please once more, consider changing the API so that current expiration date
and any of these renewal-related attributes can be obtained _without_
knowing the domain's username and password.
