If the IETF was setting servers that went and checked DNS servers and informed the operators then the IETF would be in the business of enforcing protocols. At this stage I don't see the IETF doing that nor is this document asking the IETF to do that. The is a difference between innovation and not exercising care / lazyness. Returing FORMERR because you see a EDNS flag you don't understand is not innovation. Returing FORMERR because you see a EDNS option you don't understand is not innovation. Returing FORMERR because you see a EDNS version you don't understand is not innovation. If there was anything innovative in what I'm seeing I'd be all for it but there isn't.
