Yeah that did it. Not sure how I missed that, I was read over that bit in
the docs like three times :)

When I set this up I was probably just too lazy to assign IDs and was happy
when it worked without.

I write the catalog zone by hand so hashing or whatnot is a big hassle, for
now I'll just go with a-z then. AFAIU this shouldn't be a problem since I
don't do dnssec signing and don't care if zone state is purged in the
future.
