I propose that we add a mask modifier that looks like this:

This is a very interesting idea, Radu. Couldn't you currently short
circuit your entire eBay compiled record with:
domain.com. TXT "v=spf1 ~exists:%{ir1}._spf.%{d} "
" ...restofrecord... ~all"
X._spf.domain.com. A 127.0.0.1
(with 243 of these records, for all values of X in 0..255 except for the
13 you've listed that eBay uses) ?
For a significant portion of the address space, this ends up being a
single query. And the results are cachable.
Since the compiler is generating this, the additional 243 records
shouldn't be that big of a deal to maintain.
