This is long overdue, thanks for putting it together.

For the policy implementing resolvers, I'd suggest less loaded terms than
consensual and non-consensual, since we can rathole forever arguing about
to what degree Comcast's customers consent to having their NXDOMAINs replaced
with search pages.  Something like default vs. non-default or opt-in vs. opt-out
would describe it better.

I'd also add NOERROR for a successful response with no records, and note that
some software erroneously confuses it with NXDOMAIN.

R's,
John
