Dear DNSOPers, as an operator I tend to have this need to couple
an answer for a query to an auth server, with the actual "SOA zone
version" used. So I think it'll be valuable to have an EDNS option
for it.

Here I'm proposing it with this new draft. The 'camel index' for
its implementation/hack/proof-of-concept is about 37 lines in
NSD 4.1 (more details in Appendix A).

I've asked some operators and they see value on it. Is there any
support for adoption in DNSOP?

Abstract:
   The "RRSERIAL" EDNS option allows a DNS querier to ask a DNS
   authoritative server to add a EDNS option in the answer of such query
   with the SOA serial number field of the origin zone which contains
   the answered resource record.

   This "RRSERIAL" data allows to debug problems and diagnosis by
   helping to recognize the origin of an answer, associating this answer
   with a respective zone version.

Best,
