Wearing my BoF co-chair hat: it is waaay to soon to say that. There were explicit requests for child-side declarations to be in scope for the eventual working group.

Wearing my DNSOP participant hat: that's why I encouraged Shumon and PaulV to revive <https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-dnsop-ns-revalidation/>.

Wearing my Hackathon hat: I'm working on a small testbed, using Shumon's code, that could test that.
