COMMENT:
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Thanks for this.  Protocols using SRV have been left out of the DANE
party for too long :-) But I still have a couple of comments:

3.1, 2nd paragraph (note)

I have mixed emotions about smtp-with-dane as an informational reference.
Putting it in a "note" aside, can one safely implement and use dane-srv
without reading that draft? (If the answer is really "yes", then I'm okay
with it.)

3.2, first paragraph:

Is this meant to imply that one must resolve every SRV target? I would
assume that it follows the normal SRV rules and application protocol
rules, which may or may not result in queries for every SRV target in the
set.
