This option reduces effective RTT delay. It has the most performace
improvement in DNS delay reduction, assuming the extra payload is
determined to be needed eg flags, or heuristical analysis of client
behaviour.

Its cost is additional data on the server->client path. Personally, I
think this is the best option and the one most likely to increase
cache coherence, timeliness, and reduce delay in the DNS phase.

This minimizes traffic. Otherwise, it maximises delay if subsequent
query is needed. I would suggest that a client option or flag to
request this behaviour is plausible if PUSH is the norm.

This seems the safest option and the most inherently boring, and
pointless. Why are we here if we think the best bet is the status quo?
Down down, deeper and down...
