I'm really not sure, but I can imagine a slew of issues where 'marketting'
doesn't plan properly and corp-ID/corp-branding end up trying to register
and make-live a domain at the 11th hour... This also seems like the
quick/easy fix. I'm not against any particular fix, but people need to
understand (and Sean you probably do, as does Doug I suspect) what the
implications of these design changes are and who'd be affected.
