Thanks for the report; it's my understanding that "real" DNSSEC
deployments at sites that care will do all the DNSSEC enforcement with a
local recursor because the application APIs are immature /
underspecified / etc.

Such centralization also makes it far easier for the DNS operations team
to work around misconfigured DNSSEC systems in the wild by setting
Negative Trust Anchors on portions of the DNS tree (as described at
https://doc.powerdns.com/recursor/dnssec.html#negative-trust-anchors )
when necessary.

Thanks
