Which seems a bit far afield from reality to me.  Yes, there are lots
of folks with IPv6 connectivity and v4-only recursive DNS servers.  I
don't think ISPs will have problems setting aside a handful of IPv4
addresses for authoritative DNS infrastructure to work around this
until v6 transport in recursive DNS servers is common enough.
