I don't think there is still the opportunity to reconsider this within existing 
DANE protocol.  What we might do in the future:

- define new types (like the one for bare SPKI)
- obsolete old types

But if we want to keep our sanity, we should keep to only one interpretation of 
existing types.  No matter how hard you push and how many times you repeat your 
position (you already did too many times).

Don't get me wrong, I am literally jumping from a joy that Postfix will have 
DANE support.  That's what we are all waiting for, but there's one good thing 
the standards and their uniform interpretation is good for – the compatibility 
and interoperability.

I cannot tell you how you should implement DANE in the Postfix and from pure 
technical viewpoint your implementation ignoring names in type 1 will make no 
big difference, but at least please document the implementation differences 
from DANE protocol properly in the Postfix documentation.
