There were a set of (protracted) discussions in DANE on having our own RR type or overloading TXT. There were a number of arguments on each side, but much of it boiled down to: a: web based provisioning systems suck, and some middle boxes dinkle with unknown RR types, so use TXT. b: overloading TXT is inelegant and required custom and complex parsers. Also, some of the data we want to carry is binary, and so you'd have to b64 (or something) encode it (not insurmountable, but annoying). As always there were fairly strong views (and each side had folk who were, or believed that they were, DNS experts), but the consensus ended up being a dedicated RR type. As an aside, the RR type allocation process was painless and quick. An easily accessible document describing the implications of choosing an RR type over funky TXT records, and how to evaluate these would be useful. Added brownie points if the document also describes how to do discovery / naming. TLSA settled on the _port._protcol.host.example.com "standard", but much time was spent on this discussion (and if tree-walking could be performed, and if so how, etc.) Yes, everyone's needs are different, but being able say "Some DNS wonks have already thought about this, go read RFC $foo before commenting please" would have been nice.
