Maybe it is better to basically keep the existing inet:domain name for use e.g. 
in host names that appear in all kinds of non-DNS configuration, and leave the 
definition of a domain name type appropriate for use in DNS zone data etc. to 
DNSOP WG.

So my proposal is to only modify the description accordingly, and in particular 
remove the comment about the use in A/AAAA/SRV resource records, because the 
existing type isn't really suitable for this purpose.
