Thank you for the suggestion.
I created a PR to cover this:
https://github.com/ietf-wg-dnsop/draft-ietf-dnsop-domain-verification-techniques/pull/210/changes
This adds to the Security Considerations:
# Validations not Coupled to Users
If an Application Service Provider does not properly associate Domain
Validation with Users, the new owner of a domain could potentially gain
access to Application Service Provider resources associated with the
previous owner of a domain. Application Service Providers need to take care
that re-validation of a domain by a different User is not necessarily
treated as "reactivation" in a way that grants access to potentially
sensitive resources stored and associated with a domain. (H2 in
{{threat-ul1}})
Best, Erik
