Stephane,
RFC403x used explicit language that is a good start.
Peter Koch and I have tried to introduce useful DNS terms in our DNS tutorials
http://www.ietf.org/edu/documents/80DNS-Koch-Gudmundsson.pdf
I wrote up a document to address vocabulary for DANE specifications
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ogud-dane-vocabulary-02
You would have expected that RFC6950 would have done something in this space
but it did not.
I think you are right we NEED a single document/source that expresses a
preferred vocabulary
and translations from common RFC’s to the preferred modern vocabulary.
I would be happy to work on extending the DANE vocabulary document to cover
more DNS terms
Olafur
