OK, so does this imply only names and record data can be represented in this
format if they do not contain any values that require escaping? For instance the
domain name Action\.domains.ISI.EDU (the SOA RNAME in the zone file example in
RFC 1035 Section 5.3) could not be represented with this prohibition? If so it
would be good to explicitly document this limitation. (I guess if the value that
requires escaping appears in the DUJ Rdata field it could be represented using
RFC 3597 syntax, if supported, but not for the DUJ FQDN field.)
