It may be the right thing to do, but I don't think that's a mountain that's easy to move.

When SPF came into being, the RRtype issue prevented the right thing from happening. It was made worse by late insertion of a sloppy transition mechanism. It's much too late to fix that now, but we can take steps to prevent it from happening with future protocols. Thus: Take our licks and leave this one alone, but do good work on improving process and provisioning so that it can't happen again. -MSK
