Actually, there is these days:
http://www.icann.org/registrars/wdrp.htm
Registrars have to annually "provide" a copy of that info to the
customer, although "provide" is a flexible term.
In our case we prefer to provide it as an occasional "please verify
your..." notice when they login to their control panel, since that
avoids an annoying (and possibly misdirected) e-mail message. But if a
customer doesn't login for a year, we have to send an e-mail message.
