I must chime in to say I dislike this approach a bit, but it could be

Most of all, I dislike using *3* well known site local addresses.  One
should suffice just fine.  Remember that this mechanism, at least in my
eyes, is intended for *bootstrapping* only.  After there is something that
works, one could use some other mechanism (e.g. a DNS lookup :-) to
discover *real* DNS server addresses and ignore the site local.  It seems
to me that _3_ addresses just triples delays (5-10 seconds each, per DNS
lookup?) if none of those have been configured in the site.

In addition, I greatly dislike section 5.2, that is DNS forwarding between 
sites.  If we have to implement site-border router behaviour, let's *NOT* 
require it in every cheapo 50$ DSL router.

btw, in introduction: s/usefull/useful/, s/moble/mobile/; in section 3: 
s/as DNS resolver/as DNS resolvers/.
