Yes, to all these points. Since most of the confusing beviour of ANY
occurs on recursive servers it would make sense to deprecate it there
as well.

BTW, PHP's dns_get_record function defaults to ANY.

Slightly non-serious question: has anyone experimented with returning an
answer with TYPE=255 in response to an ANY query? If so, what broke?
