Think of the various cases, RD=0, RD=1, caches, > forwarders, etc. I wrote this a few years ago: http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-bellis-dnsext-multi-qtypes-01 The primary stumbling block was the possibility (given DNSSEC) for multiple different RCODEs for the different QTYPEs being requested. I couldn't think of any failure modes in the non-DNSSEC case, but with signed data it's theoretically possible to have valid signatures for the owner name on one QTYPE and invalid signatures on another.
