Sheesh, it's a national holiday in the US and UK today.  Some of us
were out having picnics.

I like it because I like anything that makes the DNS simpler.  I'd
make the advice clearer, authoritative servers that want to
interoperate MUST refuse out of zone requests.  (I realize there are
some clients that will misinterpret that but they're already so broken
it's hard to care if they are now differently broken.)  It's MUST
rather than SHOULD because of course you can do what you want, but you
will not interoperate with a standard compliant client by returning
anything else.

I'd also like to consider offering clearer advice on what do do when a
recursive server gets an authoritative query.  Is there any situation
other than misconfiguration or testing when that would happen?  Are we
doing anyone a real favor by returning anything other than REFUSED?

R's,
John
