I feel something bad will happen if parent and child zone is on the same
auth server and resolver is using query name minimization...
(This configuration *does* exist in wild as we know from debugging Knot
Resolver - we do query name minimization by default.)

My gut feeling is that it should be mandatory but I would like to hear
from other implementers what assumptions they have in code.
