i think the goal is to get the web caching/proxy system to be able to cache dns 
results. 
using REST, this could be done. using websockets, not so much.

but as a broader matter, you make a good point. ws and wss (websockets and 
secure 
websockets) would be a fine transport for dns-over-tcp in general, since it 
already has 
connection persistency, which is otherwise something that tcp/53 speakers will 
have to 
negotiate.
