The reverse of a /8 is pretty big.  I would do it as reverses of /16’s or /24’s.
That also lets you mix and match management styles, but for a /24 which has 
multiple
administrators DNS UPDATE is still the way to go.

Machines should be updating their own PTR records using DNS UPDATE.  DNS UPDATE 
over
TCP from the address to be updated is secure enough for 99.9% of uses.

ISP’s are only scared of it because people may add “<ISP>.sucks” as the name in 
the
PTR record.
