I don't understand why an ISP would be interested in 
providing a broken service offering to its customers.

Unless it is administratively easy to provide customer configurable
DNS by some automatism, such services are likely not to be
offered to  mass markets.

Personally I would look at this as an engineering challenge: 
make something that works with ease, rather than limiting
the service offering.
