The registered trade secrets could serve as a source of prior art and it could identify the registered owner so that technology developers could license the trade secrets from the inventor. The inventor would not loose any rights during the time s/he attempts to raise revenues from licensees and patent examiners would not treat the trade secrets as published prior art.
