prevented, not solved. I would like to prevent someone from having to
submit a draft specifying that in the case of TXT, the (name, class,
type)-tuple should be extended with the first X octets from the RDATA
fields, somewhere in the future, because client-side demuxing is getting
too buggy and it seems like a good idea to select specific records in
the DNS itself.
