The raw transaction API is an obvious way to solve this, but doing so for name registrations is blocked by #181 (specifically the issues that name_new and name_firstupdate outputs can't be created). (This blockage doesn't apply to name_update transactions.)

#181 is resolved now. Proof of concept of coin control for name registration is at https://github.com/JeremyRand/namecoin-raw-tx-api/blob/master/automatic_registration.py (should work with Namecoin Core master branch).
Relevant: https://github.com/namecoin/namecoin-core/issues/463 would allow us to do this without calling the raw transaction API from Qt code.
