Seems to me that the proper thing to be done would have been for Registries to deauthorize registrars on the grounds of continuous streams of complaints.

there are 'lots of complaints' against some registrars, but if you have ~20% of the .TLD market you're prone to get more volume than a 1%er, right? Also, this isn't REALLY the registrY's problem is it?
Jay definitely said 'registRARS'. And yes, it *is* the registrar's problem to ensure they aren't selling thousands of domain registrations to known spammers and other miscreants.
