I once needed to implement a very simple DNS forwarder in an unusual context

behavior: always return a trivial TC=1 to force DNS over TCP.  It worked fine.  
I’ve also occasionally needed to implement TCP-only DNS stub behaviors, for 
similar reasons.

Having some documentation about this option might be helpful guidance for 
future DNS implementors in situations where simplicity is more important than 
performance.
Ben, I agree. I think this is a practical distillation of what I wanted to see 
in the first place, just scoped to actions for implementors rather than 
document authors. Would you be interested in coauthoring such a draft? Not for 
123, but after.

Sure, I would be happy to help with that!
