Yes! And I always wished they would adopt RFC2317 style naming for their
otherwise informationbare naming scheme. As their WHOIS services are
broken most of the time or referrals don't work this would help enormously
when setting up blocks in DNSBLs ;-))

Instead of
   10-0-0-14.dyn.example.com [10.0.0.14]
it would help if it looked like
   14.0/27.0.10.dyn.example.com
or even
   14-0/27-0-10.dyn.example.com
