Please go read STD 13 and tell me where using a iterative resolver in a application is BANNED because it is NOT there. Iterative resolvers in applications are part to the data flow model for DNS. Just because MOST application will use a stub resolver doesn't make it REQUIRED. There is no attack of the DNS by wanting interative resolvers to work by default.
