i guess i've said this about 900 times now.  DNS is a coherent, distributed
database.  don't do anything that will make it less coherent.  don't lets
start back in on things that will make the same name mean something different
(or become meaningless) depending on where you're standing when you resolve
it.


actually, a name meaning something different depending on where you are 
when you resolve it actually can be a very good thing.  just not in the 
context of multiple "." domains under independent control.
