Scenario: I set up a Freenet node, and configure it to refer to itself
using a DNS hostname.  I set up my nameserver to have a 60 second (or
whatever the minimum is) TTL for that domain name.  I let my node
integrate into the network.

What can I learn from who does DNS lookups on that hostname?  I can't 
think of a specific danger here, but it could be worrying if Freenet 
does a lookup on hosts unless it is just about to connect to them 
directly.

Ian.
