My thoughts:
1) It is a good mental exercise to think about this but is not a big
deal.
2) Anyone who will pirate your s/w would not have purchased it
anyway. So, you are probably not losing anything anyway.
3) If the s/w is worth the effort of the 'warez' person, then it is
probably decent s/w and will sell itself and you will make money.

4) Unless your s/w is the first s/w registered, this is not much help
since the person would have already registered other programs using
whatever name he already had. Many, don't use names with spaces.
Anyway it's a nice thought. I just give them a second key.
