So my question is, what do you think about the legitimacy (or not) of registering the .com version and then offering it to the .co.uk owner?

Like a lot of domainers, you don't understand the logic of registering a .com and not a .co.uk or vice versa...for the sake of a few £ each year or so.
I find it more the case where the .com is taken (by anyone worldworld) but they don't bother with the .co.uk
I guess UK company owners don't want to shell out extra, bearing in mind they are usually more expensive than .co.uk....so selling it for even more than registration seems unlikely. Well unless their company/website is more successful than they anticipated, in which case you've every chance.
