Yep. Note that ENS is an open source self-running protocol, i'm really the dir of operations of True Names LTD, the non-profit that de facto manages. Funds raised from .ETH name registrations/renewals don't even go to TNL but to an Ethereum community multisig (never spent, but plan is to use it for long-term ENS dev funding). I'm thinking about these things precisely because I'm working on the project.
