Well, RFC2010 section 2.12 hints at cache pollution attacks, and that's been discussed already. Note that I can't seem to find the same claim in RFC2870, which obsoletes 2010 (and the direction against recursive service is still there).
despite others saying that 2870 should apply to servers other than root servers, i do not support that. and that leaves aside that some root servers do not follow it very well. randy
