Actually, there is one thing you could say about DNSSEC that would help
clarify Mozilla's position.

Basically, without doing validation, a stub resolver can be categorized two
different ways:

   - security-unaware stub resolver
   - security-aware non-validating stub resolver

I think it would be helpful if Mozilla were to state which kind of stub
resolver it will be implementing (security-unaware or security-aware).

In either case, a validating resolver will return RCODE=2 if validation
fails, so I think it doesn't have any practical impact.
