For IPv6, this seems like an obviously good thing to do, since one --rev-server can create as most eight .....ip6.arpa, but for IPv4, that goes up to 128 since for instance 192.168.1.0/25 expands to 0.1.168.192.in-addr.arpa 1.1.168.192.in-addr.arpa . . 127.1.168.192.in-addr.arpa I guess that now we have efficient searches over domains, that's more likely to be OK, but it needs some consideration.
