Nice rant though :-)

agreed.

Does anyone have info on how bind (and other recursive resolvers)
select whether to use v6 or v4 if an NS points at a resource with both
A and AAAA records? Most OSes prefer the AAAA record, does bind behave
the same?

yes.


Is this a configurable option for the inverse behavoir? Seems to me
that it should be since it affects the user experience and sets policy
for the network. It just may be, but I can't find the option if it is.
