DNSSEC is "working fine" as a technology. However, it is worth
remembering that it works based on digitally signing an entire zone -
the state of the world being what it is, most people prohibit xfer so
any other technology that would allow a zonewalk is not going to be
deployed.
as far as I can tell, this is a basic design flaw, so isn't going to be
rectified anytime soon.
RFC 5155 rectifies this design flaw.
