Which requires every DNSSEC aware client to also be DNS64 aware.
I though we were trying to remove NAT kludges requires that they
be kept forever.

RFC 6147 also get DNSSEC signalling completely wrong.  There is NO
combination of bits that indicates validation will / will not occur.

Additionally the discover mechanism for the DNS64 parameters is to
say the least baroque.  It would have been much simpler to add a
EDNS option so the nameserver could actually return them or the
addresses it would have otherwise returned if DO=1 is set.  These
could be cached along with the NODATA response by intermediate
nameservers.
