I agree this is a total waste of money. However it
brings into the issue of the actual domain name
application process. Presumably these domains were
registered under their respective trademarks. If this
is the case does that mean that the domains will be
cancelled if the applications are rejected.

I would suggest that domain applications under
trademark rule should only be accepted for those
trademarks which are in a "registered" status.
