Somewhere down the road, publishers might also want to use this

do publish SPF data, but your answer is found at our SPF RR, so use that".
A good idea. But let me polish it a little. You want to use a
modifier so as to be backward compatible. I would suggest a
'spf=domain' modifier that works exactly like 'redirect=domain', except
it only fetches a type99 SPF record.
