I'd like some system where I can signal that I support DoT:

Why does the parent to be upgraded to DoT? It can just indicate a DoT server for a child. These are normal DNS semantics.

2:  without having people to probe and wait for a timeout
Again resolution follows the delegation, so that is the best place to put this in.

3: with my users first connection protected, so they don't have to
lookup safe.kumari.net (to make sure that the resolver knows that
ns01.kumari.net supports DoT), or something like _dot.kumari.net
before looking up secret.kumari.net.
Well as long as you are ok with that someone wants to something in kumari.net that should work. However maybe it is good to remind people that public DNS data is public so keeping something secret is hard to impossible. Also there has been some research presented at the ANRW workshop that even when hiding all DNS traffic from an observer it still is possible to digest what user visited by only looking at the IP addresses. ( https://irtf.org/anrw/2019/program.html - What Can You Learn from an IP). As said before if we really want privacy for users we have to fully encrypt and obfuscate layer 3.

4: without expecting everyone to support DNSSEC.
Really. I can not see how we design something new that does not take DNSSEC into account. That would negate a lot of hard work done by a lot of people over decades. Would you design something new without taking IPv6 into account?

So long
