I agree completely.
Just one more thought, doesn't the .net registry come up for a renewal/redelegation process in 2004? I'm pretty sure it does. ICANN could initiate the .net renewal/redelegation process; have it be open, competitive, and transparent; etc. It doesn't necessarily need to prove that VeriSign is "not qualified" -- it could simply opt to go with another equally qualified provider, enter into a new registry agreement with the winning bidder with a provision that states basically DNS wildcards won't be added without express, written consent from ICANN, and there you have it. VeriSign would still have .com, though -- until .com comes up for redelegation/renewal.
Perhaps our best chance is for Go Daddy or Popular Enterprises to win their lawsuits. :)
