Just a couple minor things I don't remember being mentioned already that
I noticed in a quick read:

When section 3.4 mentions that "this document describes the data
structure in sufficient detail that implementors if they desire can
write their own code to do this", it seems that this really on makes
sense when the "this" is for the encoding side, not the decoding side. 
That is, in that we expect future DNS clients to continue to process
responses in the current format, but future DNS servers might generate
responses that cannot be properly decoded just following this document. 
(E.g., what would happen if NSEC5 became popular?)

In section 8:

   Mandating this extension for Raw Public Key
   authentication (where there are no X.509 certificates) could employ
   configuration mechanisms external to the TLS protocol

this sentence structure is a little confusing; it might be better to say 
something like "If needed, configuration mechanism external to the TLS protocol 
could be used to mandate the use of this extension for Raw Public Key 
authentication".
