That would be my preference too. In the past I have requested the
registry operators consider a change where we are not charged until the
end of the auto-renew grace period 
(if it is a grace period why do we get charged up front).

At this stage I am not aware of any registry operators planning to
change the operation of the business rules associated with the
registry-registrar protocol, and I expect that any such change would
require separate ICANN approval.

The new delete policy does require registrars to delete names that are
not renewed.

Regards,
Bruce
