Registrars are on the front-lines of the transaction side and dealing with consumers who they can educate. A savvy consumer is a benefit to making the market more efficient and driving more sales. Also from a consumer standpoint, it would great if registrars would stop wedging themselves in the middle and feeing customers, creating more inefficiency. For example, the various "domain acquisition services" that charge a fee to simply email a domain owner an inquiry. Often times robbing a customer of a non-refundable $10-70 simply to send the consumers offer, which more often than not isn't much more than the fee charged.
