<poll> and object changes (was authInfo in <info> commands)

[Daniel Manley <dmanley@tucows.com>]

It's my philosophy (and perhaps this should go into the drafts) that an 
EPP registry should/must create a notification to sponsoring client of 
an object when that object is modified without that client's direct 
involvement.  So a domain registrar, for example, would be notified of 
changes in the status of a transfer initiated by the other registrar or 
by the registry's auto-approve/deny mechanisms.  Actually, the 
requesting registrar should also be notified if the transfer is denied 
by the losing registrar or auto-denied/approved by the registry.

Other situations where a registry would notify a registrar of changes to 
objects it owns:  auto-renewals, object (domain) expiry, changes 
initiated by the registry's support staff, etc...

this way, the owning registrar (with regular polling, or with pushing) 
can count on always being in the know of changes to its objects in the 
registry.
