I think that you're trying to solve two different problems here. The first

They are both really interesting questions, and I think that it would be very 
useful to consider how we would solve the problem of validating locally served 
domain.

However, this is not absolve us of the responsibility to make sure that we 
don't accidentally cause validation failures where they are inappropriate. We 
already have prior art on this. We know how to solve this problem. RFCs that 
solve this problem all solve that and exactly the same way.

...and that way might not work the way we want, and thus should be defined in 
RFCs before we make recommendations about them. In specific, we don't have any 
RFCs that deal with insecure delegation for clients that move around.

This is provably incorrect. 10.in-addr.arpa is an insecure delegation which with network-dependent content, and it works for decades. Please let's not create more diversions from the actual problem at hand, which is the missing insecure delegation. I.e. I fully agree with Ted Lemon.
