> The preferred approach might probably be along these lines:
> 	[1] EDNS0 + DO with a buffer of 5-8K (ish)
> 	[2] TCP + DO when [1] fails
> 	[3] EDNS0 + DO + 1.5K (ish) buffer if [2] fails
> 	[4] EDNS0 (no DO) with a 1.5K (ish) buffer
> 	[5] Vanilla UDP (no EDNS0) if [4] fails

DO is rather pointless because the priming response cannot be
validated anyway (even if ROOT-SERVERS.NET were secure, which is
currently not planned).
