As I wrote on Monday, the final paragraph of section 6 on page 18 of
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-vixie-dns-rpz-04
says:

  If a policy rule matches and results in a modified answer, then that
  modified answer will include in its additional section the SOA RR of
  the policy zone whose rule was used to generate the modified answer.
  This SOA RR includes the name of the DNS RPZ and the serial number of
  the policy data which was connected to the DNS control plane when the
  answer was modified.

It's not signed, but perhaps it could be with look-asside trust anchors,
although an ever growing forest of DLVs doesn't sound good to me.

Browsers and other interested applications would have to do more than
gethostbyname() or a modern equivalent to see those SOAs.  But if
browsers ever do any DANE, they'll need to do more than gethostbyname().

(perhaps that "will include" should be "MUST include")
