Sure, but as my validation is on a different server for each check, that
would imply building a custom unbound.conf on the fly. Certainly doable,
and certainly ugly.

You just cannot beat command-line options :)

(this said, a command-line option to which you could feed any of the
allowed conf-file statements would be a very nice thing, and solve all
command-line shortcomings in one go)

Best,
Gilles
