If you're updating, you might also add out protocol agility, something else 
that has
come up in this thread and before.

Thank you---state for outgoing connections on a recursive resolver
could be an issue, and to my knowledge it has not been studied yet.

My initial guess is it's not much different from state for incoming
connections on a large authoritative, and that resource limits can be
handled the same way (start closing when you're low on resources).  But
a careful study here would be useful.

And of course, there is still state on the recursive resolver if queries
are sent over DTLS or IPsec, it's just different state in a slightly
different place in the stack.
