We use the SRV lookup for load-balancing, so you should have your DNS
server configured to return values with appropriately weighted results.
This way, it will prefer the nearer server. I'm not sure we want to
assign servers by subnet, as it still may not be the fastest server
(consider a VPN).

That won't work simply, because we'll have case-sensitivity issues here.
