Of course if the bad guy also controls the client's information about the reverse zone it still loses.
Under what circumstances do you expect the attacker to be able to spoof/poison responses for one query but not the other?
The major problem I can see is that there might that hosts in ISP's dynamically allocated address pools might all fail double forward DNS checks.

Do you propose a round-robin of multiple pointer resource records for a single IP address, one for each domain hosted at that same address? That could easily exceed a resolver's maximum response length... -- { IRL(Jeremy_Stanley); PGP(9E8DFF2E4F5995F8FEADDC5829ABF7441FB84657); SMTP(fungi () yuggoth org); IRC(fungi () irc yuggoth org#ccl); ICQ(114362511); AIM(dreadazathoth); YAHOO(crawlingchaoslabs); FINGER(fungi () yuggoth org); MUD(fungi () katarsis mudpy org:6669); WWW(http://fungi.yuggoth.org/); }
