Of course. For the RDATA part of a JSON structure, you can be very JSON-y, or 
very masterfile-y like draft-levine-dnsextlang has gone. I would prefer being 
JSON-y because the rest of the data we are talking about is already in that 
format, and we would not be reliant on anyone understanding the new proposed 
format from draft-levine-dnsextlang.
