I still fail to see the diagnostic value of it. IMHO there are better ways
to debug  a server, but not all vendors have implemented them. Also what 
do you think is the diagnostic value of RRSIG?

I personally think it is harder to implement as you have to behave
differently depending on the protocol. I don't think we should make
it that complicate.

Deprecate both  and if some vendors still think they need them they can
implement them with a mechanism to limit access.

So long
