Which is really not a reason to not deploy.  There are lots of
things broken in deployed nameservers and waiting for them to be
fixed before deploying would result in us never deploying new
features.

We are pushing ahead with deploying DNS COOKIES, on by default,
despite knowing that it will result on resolution failures for a
small percentage of zones, slower (extra round trips for incorrect
rcodes) and very slow (multiple seconds as we discover the poorly
configured firewalls) lookups to others and "wrong" results for
still others (NODATA instead of DATA, NXDOMAIN instead of DATA).

We also shouldn't put on hold deploying changes to depending upon
correct ENT behaviour.  It's not like people haven't had a decade
to fix their servers since the issue was identified.
