Good point.  I think that would mean that if using all the NS records in
the cache fail to get a good response, then the resolver should check the
parent domain to see if the NS records have changed or have been removed.
(answers or NXDOMAIN being a good response in this case, REFUSED or LAME or
timeout being bad responses)

Would that work?   Should that be in the draft?
