Mike,

I agree we can't force people to read the spec. But given that many of us read the spec and didn't notice this point, I think it's worth highlighting for those who do actually read it.

What would actually be better here, IMO, is to find out _how_ this
happened. That is, is this a pathological case for a DNS server we
ought to care about. If this just a random one off misconfiguration,
I'm not sure what the point is for introducing more text with its
inherent potential of itself being misconstrued...
