actually, i like the idea of wildcard clarify (see below)
and appreciate Ed's patience in getting this work this far.
I would hope that the WG participants would get behind this work
and get it advanced...  otherwise I may be forced to insist that
the following be supported (basically, all that is not expressly
permitted is forbidden)

Now... spot the errors.  A prize may be awarded.  To Wit:

$TTL 16
. IN  SOA  ns.example.com. i.am.well. (
	22 1800 900 604800 999999 )
        ns foo
        ns bar
;
; Auth delegation list
;
COM     ns pig.
        ns dog.
;
arpa    ns iab.
        ns iesg.
;
; everything not otherwise delegated....
;
*       ns bill.
        ns kato.
;

and then this zone:

$TTL 16
* IN SOA ns.example.com. i.am.lame. (
	23 1800 900 604800 999999 )
        ns lumpy.
	ns gravy.
;
;	authoritative answer for non-existance
*       AAAA  ::1
        txt " not in my DNS thank you! "
;
; eof

So you see, we really need wildcard clarify.  :)
