I believe you could implement what you're looking for with a reasonably-sophisticated software/hardware load-balancer technology and/or some number of virtual machines, no BIND code changes required.
Personally, I don't like forwarding much at all -- I only use it where it's absolutely necessary, due to the presence of a multi-tiers-of-security network topology -- so this whole discussion pretty much falls into my "trying to teach a pig to sing" category.
