If you manage to change the definition of "SPF record" to mean

Quoth the bible:
| An SPF-compliant domain name SHOULD have SPF records of both RR types.

The terminology in 4408 is carefully chosen.  It uses "SPF records" for
the textual content of a TXT or SPF RR starting with "v=spf1 " (or the
pathological case "v=spf1").

Yeah, that's why I think we should not fight ourselves on this.

Instead, let's try to get support for the SPF RR type deployed everywhere 
(yes, it's going to take a long while).  I wonder when BIND 9.4 will 
finally come out. *sigh*  Anyone willing to lobby Microsoft about their 
DNS server (and resolver) implementation?
