The amount of data that you need to track IP allocations just doesn't fit well into DNS - there's no place to store customer id/service id, the length of allocation (is this IP part of a /28? /29?), etc. So you'll have to have "canonical data" somewhere else anyway.
You've never used comments in your dns? I have yet to figure out how to insert a comment into my routing tables that tells me what a routing entry is for,
