As an analogy, consider DoH vs. TCP/UDP as a DNS transport.  Some DNS 
transports are generally mandatory to support, and some are optional.  I think 
the same approach would be appropriate for LocalRoot: we should have a clear 
distinction between the self-contained core and the optional extensions.

We could simply say that LocalRoot as a whole is an optional extension, but I 
really like LocalRoot, and would like to see it deployed to most resolvers.  
(It may end up being valuable for privacy.)

Interesting!  I don't understand why so many RRSIGs need to change in every 
revision, but I assume that is hard to fix now.

Yes, but how do you get that list?  (Presumably via HTTP.)
