from what I've heard at DNS wgs and other places, they are afraid of
some of, or all of the following items:
- cache pollution due to data generated by experimental root servers
(like "viagenie maintains root server", which is not correct
worldwide)
- cache size problem caused at intermediate DNS servers (between final
resolver (client) and authoritative DNS server), due to bigger
responses. old (buggy) implementation of BIND on the net will go mad.
bigger responses are generated due to DNSsec signatures, additional
records on A6 chain queries, and other things.
i cannot speak for them, but this is what i heard so far.
