That's why I suggested the upper limit, and the config would need to be
time based.  IE:

  NTA example.com Thu Apr 12 09:06:42 PDT 2012

Note that if you really need to keep some trust anchors around for a
long time, it's still very hackable via a cron script:

  rm /etc/long-ntas.conf
  for i in example.com other.example.com ; do
     echo "NTA $i `date -d '+1 day'`" >> /etc/long-ntas.conf
  done
  # restart/reconf/etc here

[btw, I said "one day" based on the original wording in the draft that
implied that was a reasonable upper limit.  I'm not sure that one day is
the right period actually]

[btw2, I'd expect many (most?) implementations to ignore the SHOULD :-( ]
