I've always wanted to be able to tweak the DNS servers to apply a formula
to the TTLs to derive a new TTL that I want the server to really use, one
that can be constrained by my own intents.  That might not make others
happy, but I have found some places with TTLs less that 5 minutes.  I'd
also like to see separate timings for "TTR" (Time To Refresh) where the
data is requeried after TTR and replaced with the answer is received,
but not removed unless TTL passes with no answer (TTR < TTL, obviously).

But I guess we don't have qnamed yet.
