Quick comment on the ILNP presentation here at NANOG- I suspect the DNS is not the right vehicle for name to identifier to locator resolution. It's a tribute to the DNS that that it's almost flexible enough to do a credible job but DNS's design was focused on providing cacheable distributed maps to infrequently changing whole addresses that in a single request contained all knowledge needed to establish and maintain communication with a remote host.
