You have a good point. That SOA MNAME is used in a very limited way, and is not involved in DNS resolution, which is what i'm concerned about. We are not using DDNS, so i could put any value in there.
However, i have some desire to make my SOA 'clean', meaning not putting nonsense values in SOA records. Thanks for the helpful tips!
