Hi Shumon,

One more mundane operational benefit I haven't seen mentioned in this

that puts control of rapidity of NS RRset changes firmly into the hands of the 
child zone operator. We've had huge problems in the past with some of our DNS 
vendors routinely messing up (over the course of multiple years sometimes), 
where we would have to frequently eject one or the other vendor out of the NS 
RRset and have those changes visible quickly.

Just for my educational benefit, how does that work?

Even a child-centric resolver will eventually look at the delegation again (to 
catch re-delegation), and may then again end up at the NS that you had intended 
to remove. Removing an NS RR from the child-side RRset thus does not prevent 
queries from arriving at that NS.

I'm confused about why this is a solution for you. Do you just accept that those queries 
will go wrong? (which may be fine, of course, it just doesn't sound like "control of 
rapidity of NS RRset changes firmly into the hands of the child zone operator")

Cheers,
Peter
