It isn’t just “good” or “bad” idea that needs judging, but, is it worth
doing?  For what you get, there are alternate means.  And given that tool
implementers (referring to Mark’s comment about BIND) are adding
protections beyond this this may be a better idea in theory than in
practice.  (Operative word - “may be”.  Okay, operative two words.)

Cautionary tale – my initial message on this was just a data point, not a
forensic examination.  All it I said “we tried it, we didn’t like it”
mostly to prompt anyone else with a memory to see if they could recall
why.  On face, trying it and not liking it isn’t killer, just experience.
