The registry can leave the name in the register, but I beleive they have a responsibility not to delegate names to name servers that are known not to be configured to provide name service at delegation time.
Sure, this seems reasonable provided there is some reliable automated mechanism to communicate this information back back to Domainz.
This is easily handled if domain updates are only permitted by the current registrar. In the current model, with no clear split of Domainz' registrar and registry activities, a customer can always have more than registrar act on his behalf -- in this case, 2Day and Domainz. If the customer was obliged to deal with 2Day to make modifications to his domain (since 2Day is the active registrar for that domain) this problem presumably would not arise. However, leaving speculation about the structure of the ccTLD aside, it would seem reasonable for Domainz to run their current set of authoritative nameserver checks at de-suspension time as well as original registration (since both effectively result in a new delegation).
