For me, one of your points seems to be on the money: "Do you require them to register each application with you?" For quite a while, Governments have wanted to accurately classify and throttle traffic / consumption for certain services. For example, in Canada, we're not allowed to watch U.S. streaming video feeds other than U.S. video advertising. There are of course stronger international examples, but in the U.S. it may seem attractive to build a registration system on top of anything built for the web so that it could be shaped, monitored and shut down.
