i now realize that the draft should cover "meta queries" in general,
including RD=0 to a recursive server, AXFR and IXFR, and ANY of course,
and whatever else we can come up with. and the recommendation should be
to place these query types behind some access control mechanism, to
prevent them from being used in normal DNS operations, but to support
their use for diagnostic or other close-relationship activities (zone
transfers).
