The the unbound port existed years before it was decided that unbound
should replace bind in the base system.

If you want the port to change, send a PR for the port so I won't forget this.

Not really. For a start, the port has a different default configuration
then the one in base.

I don't see a problem either.

afaik unbound still tries to refresh its trust anchor at start (or can). This won't work without NETWORKING.

I don't agree. The term dns is too generic. People are often running
dfferent nameservers on the same machine, as example: authoritative
and nonauthoritative (e.g. nsd & unbound).
