I'm torn.
As much as I despise Microsoft, I am forced (at work) to touch quite a few 
Windows domains.  This means I either have to disable avahi on my laptop and 
remove mdns from nsswitch, or not be able to resolve computers on almost every 
client network we support.

Even microsoft suggests in their documentation to use .local for AD/DNS 
integration.

How hard would it be to get everyone on board with using something like .auto 
for avahi?
I'm guessing there are quite a few admin's out there with windows domains named 
similarly that will have these issues.
