Shane,

The additional value is being able to use the feature in off-the-shelf 
DNS software.

Stretching the analogy to BGP communities slightly (the authors had 
already discussed this internally when working on the draft, and Wes has 
made that comparison too):

Folks *could* have decided to use some unassigned BGP Path attribute 
value to carry similar information, but each implementor would have had 
their own special version of it.   Making it _standardised_ is what 
allows support to be ubiquitous (and interoperable).
