Well, there are three possible zones involved:

1) the reverse zone.
2) an ISP specific forward one.
3) a zone the home user provides.

(1) and (2) are *ISP* specific, so I think that actually one does need
    to say ISP, and not DSP.

(3) is, I agree, not specific to an ISP.

I agree.
I found the whole "people like to turn off their CER" weird.
But, that's because sandleman.ca lives at my home, and when I'm
travelling is exactly when I don't want my CER off....   but I accept
that I'm an IETF-type geek, and this protocol isn't about me.

Yes.
