Typo: I think you mean parent-side not parent-size.

A few other things that have confused me in the past:

In-bailiwick: Informal discussion (in the bar at IETF meetings) suggests 
to me that most people are confused by this term. To me and about 50% of 
the people I have asked it means "Data for which the server is 
authoritative and *not* data for which the server is an authoritative 
ancestor". To me that is more in keeping with the dictionary definition 
of bailiwick. However, at least 50% of people in the bar felt 
differently. IMHO I think this is a term that should be deprecated and 
replaced by "in zone" or "in domain".

Some RR types are described as "class independent" (See RFC4034) I am 
not sure of the exact meaning of this (despite Roy's attempts to educate 
me) and would like to see it defined here.

Also mention of A-Label, U-Label any other IDN terminology might be useful.
