Package:  dnsutils

Severity: wishlist

        As currently implemented, dig(1) provides a -x convenience
        option to query the reverse DNS in-addr.arpa, ip6.arpa, and
        ip6.int zones.

        It seems a natural extension, however, to allow querying
        arbitrary “reverse” zones, such as, for instance, used by
        various DNS black- and whitelists.  Consider, e. g.:

$ dig -z l2.apews.org -x 200.11.173.11 

        The default query type in this case may be either A (as used in
        the lists) or PTR.
