I was able to submit my DS records via a registrar that is not listed,
nor has system in place to process DS records.
NetWis is a CORE registrar, and they handled the DS submission via email 
from me, so before you switch check if your registrar will do this via 
manual process or give you a timeline for when you can submit.
Only after they fail/refuse switch, we want registrars to see there is 
demand for DS updates and that people are willing to switch if the 
service is not provided.
