If folks were used to just adding forwarder entries to named.boot, yes, since they'd also have to remember to undelegate authority for the relevant rfc1918 address space now too. If somebody setup a network using a subset of the address space from rfc1918 space they'd have to reconfigure appropriately too. All anybody really cares about is that these queries aren't beating up the root/gtld servers, so adding a check to the referral-chasing would solve that problem and wouldn't impose additional work on the users. -- Eric A.
