Registrars, as we all know, rarely check any credential beyond the 
confirmation code from the credit card charge.  The thought here is to 
provide assertions more relevant to managing e-mail.

I'm still not seeing what a cert provides that couldn't be handled by VBR 
or another DKIM signature by the certifier.
