Responding to a message at random ...

With respect to all of those who are involved and highly motivated in this topic I continue to think that it is a solution in search of a problem. The DNSKEY needs to be in the child zone, and we know that parents have varying requirements for how they handle the DS record(s). Further, it's not at all clear that the gTLD RRA framework is even going to allow direct communication between the parent registry and the child domain holder*.

What's actually missing is a signaling mechanism from the child to the parent. It's not clear that DNS is able to provide this solution. But if it turns out that it can, a more general mechanism would provide a lot more utility (ROI) so the ability to handle DNSKEY and NS at least, along with an extensible mechanism to handle what other records may come down the pike which need to be coordinated between parent and child.

* Yes, I realize that there would be utility for child domains within the same organization, but I don't think that the limited amount of utility makes it worth the effort.
