Cute trick. I love it. But it modifies the rules for response
credibility (the most credible response is in the additionnal section,
not in the answer section). Should we update RFC 2181, section 5.4.1?
I tend to think that the A record, in that example, should be treated
exactly like glue, by a ANAME-aware client.
