"I get this part.  We should make URIBL.pm and EvalDNS.pm flag ignore responses
outside of 127.0.0.1[sic] and possibly even trigger BLOCKED."

YES!  Definently trigger "blocked." ;-)  Takes care of the registration problem
too.

"Here is where I get confused.  Functional lists should explicitly return
0.0.0.0 to what query?"

...To "query refused"  (abuse/excessive traffic), if the proper DNS RC of
refused with 0 answers is not performed.  I suggest "0.0.0.0" because it is
outside of 127/8 (see processing above) and "all zeros" means no information. 
Returning "127.0.0.255" as some do is irresponsible.  If they returned a code
outside of 127/8, all we'd need is the range checking code above.
