You can't restore the RCODE by default.  This topic is repeating.  Such answers must not pass DNSSEC validation, as I understand it (for those that don't implement this draft). Backwards compatibility unfortunately complicates all this.

Urrgh, you're right. So the only backward compatible way to do this is only send NXNAME everyone down the chain has set the bit to say they understand what it means.

I suppose we could cheat slightly and say it's OK to restore NXDOMAIN to clients that don't ask for DNSSEC but that doesn't seem like a great direction to go.
