At least in this case, no. All they need to do is to put wildcard NSes pointing to their SLD synthesis servers. For wildcarded NSes, secondary servers are, according both to RFC1035 and recent clarificaiton draft, expected to behave just as wildcarded A and MX. And SLD servers for mostly-UDP transactions will be a lot less loaded than TCP-based SMTP or HTTP servers. Of course, applications just receive MX and A that nothing is visible from applications.
