I have to admit that my knowledge of DNSSEC is lacking, so can somebody 
help me answer this question (which I didn't mention in my SecDir review):

5.2.  EDNS0 option indicating AAAA Record synthesis and format

5.2.1.  Solution description

    The third revision of "EDNS0 Option for Indicating AAAA Record
    Synthesis and Format", a draft document submitted to the behave WG in
    February 2011 by Jouni Korhonen and Teemu Savolainen, defined a new
    EDNS0 option [RFC2671], which contained 3 flag bits (called SY-bits).
    The EDNS0 option served as an implicit indication of the presence of
    DNS64 server and the NAT64 device.  The EDNS0 option SY-bit values
    other than '000' and '111' explicitly told the NSP prefix length.
    Only the DNS64 server could insert the EDNS0 option and the required
    SY-bits combination into the synthesized AAAA Resource Record.

Will DNS64 insertion of this option invalid DNSSEC signature?
