If it doesn't *have* to be, don't make it.

Besides, that would open up an avenue for spammers to DDOS your name
server.  A few bytes in, lots of bytes out.  At least if they DDOS you
using regular DNS lookups they have to send about as many bytes in as they
want you to send out, making it slightly harder to do.

Be warned.  Expect trusted-forwarders.org to be DDOS'd out of service
(like many DNSBLs have been) in the hope that people will give up on SPF.
