I wonder what it does if the RRSIG moves around. (Sorry, I couldn't resist.) It seems to me that it would be nice to issue an update to something (I seem to recall someone wanted to open up 2181, but that's not what I had in mind) stating explicitly that, when an answer section contains multiple RRsets, here's how you order them. I suspect the answer will be, "You don't," since I can't imagine a principle by which we could determine this (what if there's a new special processing case in the future?). Putting the CNAME first doesn't even respect alphabetical or numeric order, so that's no use either. Boo.
