* The fax number doesn't seem particularly relevant in most cases, no.

* If you want to only allow one commercial phone number and one e-mail
  box, how about enhancing the database to allow multiple POC listings
  on objects, ala RPSL? That allows providers, for example, to list 
  vanilla role accounts and list key techincal personal for, say, AS
  registrations.

* Are you talking about parent blocks only, or all registration objects?
  I certainly like the idea of streamlining the database objects of
  netname/handle for parent IP address objects and for AS registrations,
  but changing any portion of downstream assignments has the potential
  of creating havoc with many providers' SWIP scripts. Please clarify
