BTW I would recommend you to use myDNS or tinyDNS, they are 100 times
more easy to maintain than Bind! :D

Currently we have hundreds of domains from hundreds of ISPs sending

In zone files, use $INCLUDE control statement(s) to pull in file(s)
containing records common to all, or groups, of zones, eg, the SPF
records.  Changing the contents of an INCLUDEd file changes 100s or
1000s of zones.

Yes, but the SOA serial number for those 100s of zones would need to be
incremented, too.

But I guess where a sed script would come in handy.

Frankly, if you're still editting the zonefiles by hand for hundreds of 
domains you're definetelly doing something wrong I think. I have like 10-20 
domains, that's enough for me to handle it all automagically, I never edit 
zonefiles by hand but instead rely on a suite of home-made scripts + web 
interfaces for customers.
