Unfortunately this means all A records also need SPF records. I wonder if
something like this could give the proper result:
@     IN      A       10.2.3.4
@     IN      TXT     "v=spf1 a mx -all"
*     IN      TXT     "v=spf1 -all"
www   IN      A       10.2.3.4
support       IN      A       10.2.3.5
support       IN      TXT     "v=spf1 a mx -all"

In a case like this would "www" have an A but no TXT, or would a lookup on
www (TXT) give you the wildcard?

www would have A but no TXT.  Wildcards are synthesized only if no other
record exists for the name in question.
