Maybe I don't understand what the above means, but it seems to me to
be unworkable. I.e., If an IPv6 node requests an AAAA record for an
IPv4-only node, there won't be a AAAA record and it will need to be
synthesized. By definition, such a synthesized DNS RR won't be
verifiable via DNSSEC because it is in fact an unauthorized
fabrication.
What am I missing here?
