Very cool! Kudos! This is good news from Verisign on NANOG for a change. :) 
Does this also apply to domains with other registrars? From your message 
wording above, it appears that is the case which is great news. Does this 
apply to authoritative name server changes as well? Also, does this apply 
to customers who have had their domains suspended due to non-payment? That 
is always tough for our support desk to tell a customer they need to pay 
their bill to registrar X then wait 24-48 hours. If this will end that mess 
too, that's even better.
