I humbly suggest that the dnssec-tools package should consider changing the name of that executable as well, perhaps dnssec-validate. There are many tools that could claim the term 'validate' for an aspect of what they do. What if 'rpm -V package' had instead been written as 'validate package' ? Or 'gpg -v signaturefile' had been 'validate signaturefile' ? I know, first come first served, but it feels presumptuous to lay claim to a generic action such as this.
