it is obvious to me that one must provide all services on all
addresses.  given

   foo.bar.  A    1.2.3.4
	     A	  5.6.7.8
	     AAAA 2001:666:777::42

we do not currently require that all services provided on 1.2.3.4
also be provided on 5.6.7.8.  so how can we explain doing so for
2001:666:777::42?

and the splitting suggestion seems to put more semantics in names
than the dns folk may feel appropriate.

i suspect you are trying to bind more semantics to the dns than are
generally expected there.
