Yes, perhaps spreading out one's domains across 2 or 3 registrars may be safer for the reason you brought up, but beyond 2 or 3 registrars, the odds of losing track of domains greatly increases; more chances of domains being stolen - seems contradictory, but more accounts means more possible vectors of attack - and unless one is using different passwords, etc for each registrar, the benefits of using numerous registrars for security reasons may be limited utility anyways.

"Name safe" ... $10 per domain? Wow, I'm definitely in the wrong business LOL!

Save the $10/domain and just make sure registrar-lock is REALLY ON by checking the VeriSign .COM registry directly (or using one of several decent Whois services) for each domain to be sure the registrar-lock status is really on.
