One thing I think has always been bugging me about DNS over HTTP is the appalling performance we will likely see in a lot of cases. Even small latencies in normal DNS lookups cause major impact on page load times on complex pages with resources from many servers, and adding HTTP overhead to this will slow things further.

So I suggest some thought should be given to reducing round-trips by allowing for multiple DNS request payloads in a single HTTP request message, and multiple DNS response payloads in an HTTP response message.

E.g. sending requests as base64 encoded blob values in key-value pairs as post data, so that a response can be linked back to the request.

At this stage of the game this should be quite easy, but will become more and more difficult as time goes by if the single request/response model is rolled out.
