I can see how two different sysadmins administer the _openpgpkey and

Like the smime one on Microsoft and the openpgp one on Linux.
But we've gotten along with A and MX records at the same name for 30 years.
But A and MX records live within the same zone, whereas _openpgpkey.tld
currently is its own zone. It is a nice and clean separation.
For example, when I filled this up with 3000 records for
_openpgpkey.fedoraproject.org it became obvious this zone couldn't live
in the same git repository as everything else due to its sheer size. The
same might no be true for some payment record or email alias record.
We could use _mailbox, but I don't see much advantage from tying
different RRtype's at the same prefix. What is affected by this
other then a line of code somewhere in a program only few few people
will see? As you said, people still need to query for the individual
QTYPEs.
