I spend £10,000's in legal fees per year on UK disputes defending my domains. Would like to get some of that back (at the Experts discretion).
Have requested a similar inclusion to what is offered in .ca;

We believe that the drs is continuing to be successful in meeting these core aims. In addition, the drs enjoys a significant level of support amongst our stakeholders in the domain name industry, government and the intellectual property community. We have therefore not sought to undertake a fundamental review of our drs policy but have instead looked to identify any areas where our policy and procedure were not as clear or up-to-date as they could be.
The proposed changes are intended to address these issues by consolidating the current separate policy and procedure documents into a new single policy document.
All changes proposed to the text are clearly identified in the supporting documents and include:
General updating to reflect the removal of fax numbers, availability of registrations directly at the second level within .uk;
removal of the option to file hard copy documents with us;
ability of nominet to reject complaints which appear to be vexatious; and
keeping the fees separate from the policy text.

4.6 Bad Faith of Complainant. If the Registrant is successful, and the Registrant
proves, on a balance of probabilities, that the Complaint was commenced by the
Complainant for the purpose of attempting, unfairly and without colour of right, to cancel
or obtain a transfer of any Registration which is the subject of the Proceeding, then the
Panel may order the Complainant to pay to the Provider in trust for the Registrant an
amount of up to five thousand dollars ($5,000) to defray the costs incurred by the
Registrant in preparing for, and filing material in the Proceeding. The Complainant will
be ineligible to file another Complaint in respect of any Registration with any Provider
until the amount owing is paid in full to the Provider.
