TLS man in the middle proxies are easy to implement with faking
certificates (on the fly for local enterprise CA or by obtaining fake certs
from well known CAs).

With DANE, there is a problem: You need to modify the DNSSEC chain on the
fly.

So what Marc is asking for is a way to forge DNSSEC answers for legal and
illegal purposes, cooperate and secret services. It's sufficent to provide
such a system for DANE only.

The most obvious solution is to install mandantory DLV in the resolvers, so
urging such support for DANE applications.
