Hmm... Yes, well I can see this as useful (though not much more than a few lines of any programming language?) if you intend to maintain generic placeholders...but not if you want RFC-compliant matching A/PTR. Granted, you should not drop mail in such cases, but many do. I guess tools and best practices take time to catch up to technological leaps. ;-) Or do you actually create A's matching your generic PTR and heavily rely on CNAMEs? Of course that simply won't do for some standard RR types. As much as I dislike djb in general, the way tinydns auto-creates matching PTR (and also provides a mechanism to disable as needed) for each A RR kinda makes sense. Granted, it doesn't do IPv6 at all without 3rd-party hacks...but they do at least exist. -- All his life he has looked away... to the horizon, to the sky, to the future.
