Let's be transparent here: reverse lookups are not a formal requirement, and, 
if I'm not mistaken, not even officially published as a Best Practice. Many 
folks don't bother with them.

but most network services are doing reverse lookups and caching of NXDOMAIN is typically lower than a successful response

Having said that, they are *very* useful, and I insist on them wherever 
possible.

whatever decision has been made in terms of reverse-record ambiguity. Our 
homegrown system handles this in a very inflexible, embedded way, as per 
decisions we made years ago. But a commercial product should be flexible enough 
to handle a wide variety of choices.

nothing easier than that even for a homegrown system

* database
* each A record get a auto-increment
* the first A-record defines the PTR
* if you *really*  want to switch - just delete
  both A and re-create in the order you want

works for many years and some hundret zones like a charm
