This would be a *very* good idea, as it would help a lot for
transfers.
Because, other than doing that, there is no way for a Registrar to
know the ``true'' expiration date (some Registrar whois are funky
about this) and this is needed.
Customers would also be able to see the truth (when their Registrar
does not submit multi-year registrations to the Registry).

The date of creation would also be nice.
