(As an aside: I've often wondered why the DNS doesn't have *more* meta-query types, less extensive than ANY, such as a single type covering A and AAAA. Or, an EDNS OPT mechanism to request a list of desired types in addition to QTYPE to be returned in the additional section (subject to packet size, rate limiting, DNS cookie authentication, whatever).
It's been tried, for instance to get a lot of crypto records along with the address records. People don't seem to like it at all. It might be harder now too when needing to include a bunch of NSEC(3) proofs.
