Registrars have the power.
Sibername has CWA on rants they created for me while winning domains in their TBR.
I let a domain drop this year and it never went to TBR, it went into their name.
I'm not sure they still do this, but they used to use their email account when setting up a new rant durring a TBR win, they had enough time to retrieve my cira passwords on those accounts before I went through the request process to have my email instead of theirs.
Another time (last month) I sold a dot ca for 1500 and webnames somehow approved the final step of rant transfer. I logged into cira with no process waiting, I wondered and checked the whois, low and behold the name was transferred without my approval. (I didnt freak cuz I was approving it anyhow)
All that said, registrars can do alot more than you think. There are only two I completely trust.
Baremetal and namespro. The rest I will use for my own means and not for holding. I also keep aa very close eye on my main rants.
I havent dealt alot with myid, but from my little experience they seem fine.
