*That* development has been going on since many years already, totally 
independent of secure DNS, partly due to the lack of proper standard 
asynch/non-blocking APIs. (I maintain one such library.)

A more positive way to look at such independent code is that it allows for 
better innovation and freedom for applications as they're not held back by 
(from their point of view) limited system implementations.

I don't think we, or anyone else, can stop that trend and I don't think we 
should try. I think we should be agnostic to where the implementations lie.
