Ugh, I'm trying _really_ hard not to be an annoying nitpicker (yeah, I
know, try harder :-), but...
The relevant verbiage of RFC 6762 is:
Caching DNS servers SHOULD recognize these names as special and
SHOULD NOT attempt to look up NS records for them, or otherwise
query authoritative DNS servers in an attempt to resolve these
names. Instead, caching DNS servers SHOULD generate immediate
NXDOMAIN responses for all such queries they may receive (from
misbehaving name resolver libraries). This is to avoid unnecessary
load on the root name servers and other name servers.
I'm not sure that slaving the root zone (although it is the "simplest
solution" and undoubtedly _works_) is really compatible with the letter
or spirit of that verbiage...

If you want to use DNSSEC to validate the contents then
you can use views to achieve this.
