Rob, Thankfully, that's not what's being proposed (nor is it current practice). Those of us who track down stolen, pirated, bootleg, or otherwise infringing copyrighted materials on the web don't want to send anything to or through ICANN. They just need to find and contact the registrant and/or the hosting provider and/or the registrar and/or the registry in order to deal with them directly. Since its inception, Whois has been instrumental in doing so. But nothing gets sent "to or through" ICANN. ICANN never sees infringing content, is not aware of any infringing content, is not aware that any particular copyright is being infringed, and is not aware that any possible infringement is being investigated.

Seems fairly clear to me that an allegation about copyright infringement on a webpage shouldn't be sent to or through icann (unless the entirety of the next Harry Potter book is a bit short and can fit inside the 63 character limits of a domain name)
