Scott,

This is how it was explained to me by the guy whom implemented this.
 
External hosts are partitioned in views per Registrar. The external host
(ns.example.com) may exist multiple times (different host:roid) in the SRS,
but only once per Registrar.
 
Imagine that RegistrarA created ns.example.com, and is the only instance in
the SRS. RegistrarB will see the host ns.example.com as available, and will
create a new instance (different host:roid from RegistrarA). If RegistrarB
changes the name of the host, only the domains sponsored by RegistrarB will
be updated in the DNS.
 
Without an EPP extension there is no way for RegistrarB to know about the
existence of the host instance of RegistrarA. The developer told me that no
such EPP extension was implemented in the SRS, because it is not needed.

Regards,
Gustavo
