I agree. It takes me back to my original comment: #6 (storing a random value under a well-known folder) is not at par with other methods outlined in this section.

Well, if they don't match your records than they can update it to make it correct. This also confirms that they really control the domain :-)

Anyway, the WHOIS records I find are more correct than not or they are obscured (privacy).

Besides that, email addresses found in the WHOIS records can't be really incorrect I assume...which is the only thing used for a domain control validation.
