I agree that many terms are frequently overloaded, and that it causes headaches for me every day. Note that I'm not saying with any certainty that I think it will be possible to produce an authoritative taxonomy that everybody agrees with. But I think it's worth a try, and I'd be happy to volunteer to contribute. I don't think it's practical to revisit every DNS-related RFC and normalise the language (enthusiasm to produce a unified DNS specification has never resulted in text in the past) but at the very least we could provide some assistance to help future document authors use terminology in a consistent fashion.
