Thanks for giving this some thought!

I wouldn't mind if you try to solve it, of course :-) But since there is
apparently no trivial "fix" to server id validation, I'd be just as
happy with a simple paragraph stating that validation of
(S-)NAPTR-derived identities doesn't work in a trusted manner without
DNSSEC.

(But that's just me, since I don't mind prescribing DNSSEC in my draft;
but my working group chair already expressed that he'd prefer something
else)

Greetings,

Stefan Winter
