Hello!
Does nsd support ALIAS records or is there a plan to support it somewhen in the

there is no RFC for it and I guess therefore nsd does not support it.
PowerDNS does for example:

AFAIK, PowerDNS is the only open source name server that supports ALIAS. There
was an idea to standardize ALIAS as "ANAME"
(https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-dnsop-aname/), but the idea was
dropped in favor of SVCB/HTTPS record
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/rfc9460/.

While SVCB/HTTPS provides a better solution for the browsing use case, I see
other use cases where ALIAS/ANAME would be ideal, notably in apex RRs.
So while fostering SVCB/HTTPS deployment is a good thing, I wouldn’t mind name
server software implementing ALIAS. Including NSD, but I reckon
