Is the use case perhaps the ability to attack comment-like metadata to dynamic 
updates and IXFRs, to help document data elements in particularly 
widely-distributed and heterogenous environments?

(I think the proposal is well-written and intelligent, but I also struggle 
slightly to imagine a use case beyond "work around the fact that the nameserver 
I'm using likes to throw away my nice comments" :-) If this is really something 
that's mainly useful for BIND9, then you'd think a private RRType would 
suffice, similar to the use of TYPE65534 in BIND9's auto-dnssec maintain).
