This proposal doesn't satisfy the problem statement.

(which nobody wrote. :)

I don't want to tube on writing a formal requirements doc before we finish 
doing a naming architecture, but I think now that I've taken a stab at this, we 
should think about our reactions to and see if we can scope the problem we are 
trying to solve in a bit more detail than just "naming and service discovery on 
home nets."

I think we came to this conclusion in dnssd too, from you seeding the 
discussion in the context of service discovery in a “flat namespace homenet" 
there.

Not proposing this seriously, just attempting to explore the design space.
Some of the ideas are due to Toke.

Zones and authoritative nameservers are announced over HNCP together with
their set of addresses, which SHOULD include a LUA and MUST include at
least one IPv6 address.  There are two bits associated with each
authoritative nameserver:

  - default: set to 1 if the zone is suitable for name registration without
    explicit user configuration;
  - public: set to 1 if the zone is visible from the public internet.

When a router joins the homenet, it MAY announce itself as the new
authoritative nameserver for a zone.  It SHOULD do so if there is no
default public or private zone.

If there are two default private zones or two default public zones, we
call an election, Highlander-style.  If there are two authoritative
nameservers for the same zone, we call an election.

There are no secondaries.  If there are secondaries, their configuration
is outside the scope of this mail.

Stateful DHCP servers SHOULD register their clients with the authoritative
nameserver for the default private zone using your favourite unicast
mechanism.  Clients MAY register themselves with any zone currently
announced (they learn the server addresses through HNCP snooping or a from
new ND option, I don't care).

mDNS proxying into the default private zone is allowed.  Or recommended,
I'm not sure, only implementation experience will tell.

Why exactly am I speaking nonsense?
