COMMENT:
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Retaining my previous points here, since I think some text or an informative
reference would be helpful, but the fact that they're understood and being
considered in a related draft is enough to clear the DISCUSS. Thank you!

====

In Section 3.2, we see the following text:

> CSYNC-based updates may cause validation or even insecure resolution to break
(e.g., by changing the delegation to a set of nameservers that do not serve
required DNSKEY records or do not know the zone at all). Parental Agents SHOULD
check that CSYNC-based updates, if applied, do not break the delegation.

Is there a definition of how the Parental Agent "check[s] that ... updates ...
do not break the delegation"? I would have expected a more concrete instruction
here, such as repeating the same queries on the proposed delegation targets and
ensuring that they, too, return records consistent with what was found on the
existing nameservers. Perhaps this already exists somewhere and a reference is
sufficient?

>From discussion, it appears that Section 2.2.1 of
draft-ietf-dnsop-ds-automation addresses this in more detail. I think what we
ultimately want is something like "SHOULD synthesize the new NS, DS, and other
records which would be applied if the update were accepted, then verify the
existence and valid signature of the DNSKEY record on each nameserver
referenced by an NS record in the new set."
