local to whom?  it si rare that one finds the simple "stub-imr-auth" DNS path
in the Internet of today...  its usually (esp the coffeeshop example) more like
"stub-local cache-captive portal-forwarder-imr-auth"   and at each one of those
"hops" has the ability to inject local policy.

it is somethign that needs to be addressed, if not in dssa or ssac, then another
venue.

SAC050 is nice but appears to lack teeth in the face of vendors (at least one)
embedding DNS blocking technology in their product and predicting ubiquitous
deployment of same.

>From Pauls presentation: slide#26

DNS firewalling will become ubiquitous in the same way that antispam 
technologies did.
DNS RPZ will create a global market of DNS firewall policy producers and 
subscribers.
DNS RPZ will be implemented by all DNS vendors, not just by ISC in BIND (as 
today).

as usual, YMMV, but it would not be reasonable to claim this is a non-issue.
