I would definitely use it. Whitelisting is probably the most 
maintenance-intensive part of using dccm and anything that somehow would 
mitigate the need of manual whitelisting by users would be welcome. And besides 
all that, there isn't much support in software for DNS whitelists at this time, 
adding support can only contribute to better and maybe more whitelists.
