Okay, but this simply isn't true.   I think you actually responded to the dig traces I sent earlier.   The root servers securely deny the existence of localhost.  Existing practice is that localhost does not appear in the DNS.   The fact that the RFCs currently differ from existing practice is a problem that the current document is trying to solve.
