Say you have three services, _marid, _able, and _baker, each

Tnx, now I got, *.example.com would be ambiguous. But maybe
we could get around this problem with an additional "_below":
_marid.www.example.com exists => ready, use it for _marid
_baker.www.example.com exists => ready, use it for _baker
No _marid.foo.example.com => try _marid._below.example.com
No _baker.bar.example.com => try _baker._below.example.com
Quite expensive, but no more conflicts for different services.
Could that be a solution for the "don't abuse TXT fraction" ?
