Apologies, this seems to be not very unconfusing from me.
I meant with the above: the problem seems to be the static,
authoritative information that is returned.  With views you
maybe not so interested in actual different recursive resolution
of names on the internet, and this is more about a different
view on the local organisation than a different view on the
internet.  And then I tried to combine this with unbound's
goal of doing recursive lookups in a small and pretty way.

Cool, that is one solution that provides everything :-)

Best regards,
