Okay, so if I understand you correctly, you are saying that: Rather than setting up a unique domain name to solve a problem you had with postfix, you used localhost, for convenience You believe that this practice, or similar practices, are widespread I think you acknowledge that you can still do this hack even if the document says you mustn't. You also propose that recursive resolvers not forward localhost, but then there's actually no way to reply with anything other than NXDOMAIN, because a recursive resolver won't have authoritative information. Maybe you mean a hybrid server that is recursive for domains for which it isn't authoritative? Is there more?
