While undoubtedly ideal, I don't trust a million local DNS admins around the world to all get this right. For example, this should be done for RFC1918 addresses as well, yet the volume of bogus reverse queries hitting the roots was still substantial enough IANA resorted to lamely delegating the zones. It'll probably end up happening to FD00::/8 as well. > If a non-unique local addresses are in use it can have delegations > in this zone. Of course.
