Identifying TXT records by initial "tags" such as "v=spf1" is easy

The various ADSP drafts fail to provide the essential version tag
for their identification, this is no general TXT wildcard problem.

The general TXT problem is the *size* of all RXT records combined,
and the various ADSP drafts refuse to share SPF records for their
limited size needs.
   

While I myself am leaning away from TXT records for other reasons, this 
is not one of them.  ADSP is a bit more safe because like DKIM it uses a 
_adsp label.  If you look up a TXT record with that label it makes less 
sense to expect anything other than ADSP.
