It should be a no brainer to have a registrar or registry do this, but
it isn’t.
Indeed.  Have you tried the abuse approach at the registry when the registrar 
won’t deal with you?  What sort of response did you get (if any at all)?  I’m 
curious what registries’ abuse departments would say about that when, 
technically, they’re contractually bound to publish whatever a registrar gives 
them.

I think it would be reasonable for the registry to insist the registrar act, but there may not be power to force it within the current contract, or motivation to make it happen in a future contract. I'd hate to see a situation where ICANN and their ilk become arbitrator of what is permissible on the internet, and if they become active in an abuse handling role, that could be problematic.

In today's system, one might also file a complaint against the validity of the information in the WHOIS, since this seems to have higher odds of getting a registrar to disable a domain than an actual abuse complaint.
