Hello Andrew - I agree with you totally, and can't thank you enough for the questions you listed.
So, given the scope of what needs to be accomplished here - and who should perform the work - we have brought a number of internal parties into deciding precisely that. At this time, I cannot hazard a guess as to how much of this will be part of our in-progress system documents, or how much will be authored in my group, and how much in documentation development. I do, however, expect this will be resolved within the next week, and I will notify you as soon as the determination is made.

Sadly, this is way off target. I meant it when I said it was a good start - this is the first chapter, not the complete reference. A trusted domain relationship exists to be used - I need to have a clear overview of how authentication and other information flows between trusted domains. Is DRS synchronisation used? How is it used and between what trust types? How does a domain know which other domain to contact about an attempted login with a user principal name? How are the transitive trust relationships followed to allow access to a resource in some far-away domain? When a user (from a trusted domain) is added to a security descriptor, how is that name resolved? What purpose does the global catalog take in trusted domain environments and how is it consulted when dealing with inter-forest trusts? These are just some of the questions I would expect an overview of trusted domains to show (with links to the explicit details of calls, but 200 pages of packet captures isn't a substitute for real detail).
