I would "second" this, for a further reason...

If your Hosting Provider does the domain registration for you, then
*THEY* are the ones that hold the registration.  If you ever have need
to change providers, then they may be in a position to hold the domain
name "hostage," and if they were the ones who paid for it, you may
have to hire lawyers and such to fight for the name.  You may be in
the right, but it may co$t thou$and$ to e$tabli$h that.

If, on the other hand, you kept that separate from hosting services in
the first place, the hosting provider has no way of causing any such
trouble.
