It's not so much the issue for a registry but for a registrar, which 
I sense isn't being considered.

The IETF concern is that a registrar can work with an registry that 
needs no specific privacy statements made in band and can work with a 
registry using another model that does need statements made.  If the 
registrar has to use two different EPP clients then the WG has failed 
to achieve the goal of interoperability.

E.g., if registry 1 uses brand A EPP client/server and registry 2 
uses brand B, the 'caught in the middle' registrar should be able to 
use the client of brand A xor B to talk to the two servers.
