I've supported 6 nameserver fields ever since we started supported
them under the old CA domain adminstration - I think that was back
around 1994, give or take a year or so, and it was my recommendation
to CIRA that got them to continue that support (they originally
weren't going to.  You'll find my DNS (nameserver) update for that
quite functional (see www.registry.ca).

As for the PGP field, honestly you're the first person who's ever
asked me for it.  I can certainly code a simple interface for it;
contact me privately if you'd like me to and you're willing to test
it.
