I doubt that this will remain the case if I get my way with DNS policy.

People outside core DNS infrastructure providers are unlikely to deploy 
security mechanism for an existing infrastructure until they are convinced that 
there is a very serious need to do so. Unless the role of the DNS changes that 
is only likely to occur if there is a very significant event.

There are two benefits to deploying a comprehensive DNS based policy 
infrastructure:

1) It will make the Internet much easier to administer and use
2) It will motivate deployment of security infrastructure for DNS providing a 
single ended adoption benefit to early adopters before critical mass is reached 
to drive the network effect.
