Re: [DNSOP] Introducing draft-vavrusa-dnsop-aaaa-for-free

In one of the experiments we are conducting we stuff the response with other QTYPE data and this seems to not interfere with resolver behaviour (unless we trigger it). So #3 doesn’t seem to be a common case (we could look in the fringes for this behaviour).

Towards the resolver’s clients, all extraneous data gets cleaned out of the response, which is quite sane behaviour in the current DNS. Have not tested what the resolver does with the data (keep it in cache, something in between #1 and #2, or discard it altogether, as in #2).
