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.
