(b) Port-43 WHOIS only providing such data to authenticated parties (ie
you can have two WHOIS addresses - one for anonymous access that doesn't
provide such dates, and one for access by a party that signs the
equivalent of a zonefile access agreement).

it might be worthwhile looking at encryption options instead of setting up different services - this is just an implementation detail, but I think encryption might scale better. In any event, I am receptive to the submission made - it might make for a fair middle ground, especially if there is an auth layer that lives above registrant auth that allows registrars to tell if the request they are seeing has been signed by a registrar or some other third party.
