> - no system is perfect

My feelings exactly.

We could spend a great deal of effort trying to engineer a secure solution
that would prevent that 0.01% of transactions that are fraudulent, probably
at no small inconvenience to the legitimate 99.99%.  But since the result
would never be 100% successful (there is always the human factor), and since
unauthorized domain name transfers are relatively rare and completely
reversible, what would really be gained?

"They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety
deserve neither liberty nor safety." - Benjamin Franklin

OK, that's only marginally applicable, but I like repeating it!  I'm not
against any improvements in security as long as they don't make things more
difficult for legitimate end users.
