As the suggester, I'm for per zone enforcement.  To answer the two 
issue questions:

1) No.
2) See #1 ;)

I don't think that the goal is punishment or labeling because this 
might have other repercussions (esp. if space is returned and 
reused).  The goal is to make the DNS work better.  So, once efforts 
to get the situation fixed have been unsuccessful,  all that is 
needed is to drop the offending NS RRs from the zone file.

This is a DNS issue, not really a registry issue.
