I think this might be a bit in conflict with efforts registries have to reduce the turnaround in zone modification to the order of tens of minutes.
Why is this necessary? Other than the cool factor.
I think the question is "why should the Internet be constrained to engineering decisions made in 1992?"
Well, I think the question is, why to new domain additions have to be lumped in with all other zone changes and updated within minutes? Why can't new domain additions be treated specially and be held back for a day or two in order to prevent tasters from abusing the network. Note that this would not prevent tasting from happening, it would only hurt those tasters who are doing this to hide the source of network abuse. --Michael Dillon
