No I guess I wouldn't. I put ads on puppyfind from time to time and honestly you get a lot of crazy emails. Why add to it by saying you are doing open registration? Though I do admit I have it on my website.
And no I could never be satisfied with handing over breeding rights over a brief interview. However I would be open to building a relationship with that person, learning to maybe trust them one day with full rights (along with more contracts). It isn't something that is earned overnight, I would have to really come to know and trust that person completely. I could even possibly meet that potential person through an ad. No they wouldn't get a puppy off of me then but someday they might. I myself like to get to know a breeder and earn their trust and vice versa way before I ever really consider about getting one of their pups.
Perhaps this is how Dee thinks? I really don't know, it is just how I look at it.
To date I've never sold a puppy with full registration. Like I said very few would have that privilege.
