[Sorry for the delay, but I want to clear up any remaining misunderstanding]
Your original email said:

>>> That sounds like a pair of bugs to me.
And there is nothing about zones in that statement.
To which I responded:

Again, nothing about zones.
When it comes to zones, I agree that 127.0.0.1 should not be used to
cross zone boundaries (with the exception being Jarrett's TX case).
I hope that clears things up.
