I made a single pull request with two commits, I hope that's OK.

The 16-bit field is the second commit, and if that fails to get
adopted, then you can use just the first commit.

  https://github.com/tlswg/dnssec-chain-extension/pull/14

The text is slightly different from my earlier post based on
a revisions already staged by the authors which adds a section
containing a brief overview of the the two types of a denial
of existence response.  The first commit makes what I think
are additional necessary adjustments elsewhere in the document.

It also changes MUST use DANE when TLSA records are present to
SHOULD use DANE when TLSA records are present AND "usable".
With the protocol subject to downgrade attacks, the MUST does
not afford any downgrade resistance.  The client may do as it
pleases and the server is none the wiser, so MUST does not
make sense here.
