sorry.  i like to stretch it to be sure i am thinking all the way to the
edges, as getting out of the box is hard.

the point in this stretch is that, if the base worry is cluttering the dns
data, then splitting a class at the root blows that worry away.

then we have to ask, is this extreme needed.  just to further stretch the
mind, what if one traipsed down the IN tree until one wanted a key or cert,
and then one did a query to the same servers and domain using a KEY or CERT
class?

my apologies.  i know it's lunch time over there.  i am not really
advocating this, but trying to understand as much of the space as i can.
