Has anyone directly registered their domain with Nominet (UK)?

Who on earth would pay £94 (in VAT)?

If so, what are the benefits?

No benefits, except you can register the domain names in the following zones:
.ltd.uk, and .plc.uk.

Basically that's the fallback option if there is a problem with your registrar, at least you have the option to go to the registry and "save" your domain for a high price, better then loosing it when your registrar is somehow gone...
