this statement bothers me.  certainly without DNSSEC there can be no 
*assurances* of security,

While there are often assurances of security, there can never be assurance
of security.

there is a gaping chasm between the current system and DNSSEC that could
be closed significantly with proper design.

simply stating that until DNSSEC arrives these attacks are going to be 
allowed is a copout.

Send code.
