That would be good indeed. Especially with respect to broken DNS load
balancers.

I have enabled it in Fedora from the start and did run into a few problem
domains, and some people turning it off. But that happened less than I
had expected. Red Hat did not yet enable this in RHEL7 but it is planned
to be enabled in RHEL8.

But I do believe qname minimisation is an important privacy enhancing
technology that we should strongly promote as a standards track
document.
