Yes, I guess you understood correctly.

At the moment there is not. I have just spoken to DENIC though, and
they told me they were migrating those person objects to an own DENIC
database. The same was done for domains quite a while ago also by the
way, domains were stored in the RIPE database and have been ported to
DENIC. Also, most other NICs have - according to my infos - already
migrated to own databases, why would not DENIC do also?
