COMMENT:
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Firstly, thank you for writing this, and also for addressing Joe Clarke's
OpsDir notes (and, obviously, thanks to Joe for the review!).

I have a clarifying question and some nits:
Section 4.2.2:
" According to the limited empirical data available, Random Length Padding
performs slightly worse than Block Length Padding." Performs slightly worse
along what axis? I'm assuming "the server can answer less queries per second",
but could also be "uses more RAM", "higher CPU", "explodes randomly", etc. I
don't really think that this needs to be addressed, but if you are editing it
anyway, and have an easy way to improve it...

Oh, Appendix A made me laugh :-)

Other than that, some nits:

1: Section 3.  General Guidance
"EDNS(0) options space: The maximum message length as dictated by protocol
limitation limits the space for EDNS(0) options." This flows a little oddly -
perhaps "The maximum message length as dictated by the protocol limits the
space..." (unless the "limitation limits" entertains you...)

2: Section  4.1:
"Note that the recommendation above applies only if DNS transport is encrypted."
I suggest "if the DNS transport..."
