Downgrade seems to be an issue with all proposals. To solve them,
there may need to be something signed by the parent as part of the
delegation data.

One option is to create a hash over the NS record set and place it in the
parent zone in the same way as the DS record. This could either be a new
record type or, devious but possibly deployable right now, (ab)use the DS
record for the purpose with a new algorithm type.

Kind regards,
Martin
