If folks were used to just adding forwarder entries to named.boot, yes,
since they'd also have to remember to undelegate authority for the
relevant rfc1918 address space now too. If somebody setup a network using
a subset of the address space from rfc1918 space they'd have to
reconfigure appropriately too.

If they're just caching forwarded queries, as long as the servers they
forward to have such sink zones setup, it's not a problem...not for the
roots/in-addr.arpa servers anyway.
