It would then all be using just DNSSEC, and not other kinds of
authentication or verification schemes that _also_ need DNSSEC.

Indeed, I was wrong there. And to turn all that glue into signed records
will be a larger task, even if assuming all newgTLDs would have signed
records for the glue in the root.

Yeah, I only meant in the context of this discussion.

So you convinced me that it is okay to move forward with this.
