please give this a read, especially if you think a dns-oarc flag day related 
to maximum edns payload size is a responsible idea. the draft revision below 
does not include a reference to

https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-gont-v6ops-ipv6-ehs-packet-drops-04

because we weren't aware of it, but the next revision definitely will. our 
thesis is, set the DONTFRAG option on udp sockets on both the initiator and 
the responder, and then follow where that leads.
