I guess it depends on who the 'host' is as to whether that's a good idea. With ISPs who host it's best not to get your domain through them but buying through a webhosting/domain registration company is usually fine, as long as you have control in the purchase and set up. In the old days many ISPs or webhosts used to register in their names and not the client's and then there were challenges in shifting the site to another space but these days that shouldn't be a problem. I always make sure my clients are listed as the owner and billing contact - I'm usually listed as the tech and admin contact.
