it's under consideration now. bind8 is not a priority for the bind forum,
and isc would rather put it in feature-freeze, but we're looking into it.
bind9's internals make "delegation-only" easy to implement. bind8's
internals are pretty twisty.

works fine here. bind9 is what f-root runs, and also all of our recursive
servers, some of which are tru64. try it, you'll like it.

agreed, other than to clear up the above in the same forum where it was heard.
