I'm not sure I like this approach. Creating a domain should be a
heavyweight operation, and eventually should include a bunch of sanity
checks, like existence of domains and MX records. I have visions
(nightmares) of users coming to us saying
User: I said yes, but mail never arrives.
Dev: .... Oh, is there a proper entry in the DNS?
User: Doesn't Mailman create the domain?

Deleting a list should be immediate, but I agree it should be confirmed.
