I'd like to suggest we close this issue, since this topic would, if at all,
belong in an addendum to or update of RFC 2317/BCP 20.
That said, a property of DNAME is that all descendants of its owner are
treated equally, something that 'Classless delegation' was explicitly designed
to avoid. DNAMEs _could_ be used for prefixes shorter than /24 instead of
'mass delegations': for a /17, instead of 128 delegations install 128
DNAME RRs (and maybe one delegation). Still, I don't think that would be
in scope for 2672bis.
