Paul - I guess I'm missing some background here. In what sense did
getting DS working throw validating stubs overboard? Do you mean it
took the focus away from them?

As Mark A points out, it isn't that hard these days to write a validating
stub resolver. It just needs a clean path to a working DNSSEC aware
recursive server. Yes, the RDNS has to be DS aware, but those have
been commonplace for a decade or so.
