Pfff, now I'm confused. Here is a case where systemd-resolved implements the
standard, and some people were unhappy because they were relying on sloppy
implementations which don't follow the RFC. Nevertheless, we added an opt-in
switch to make this work. (Since this feature mostly matters in "special"
setups like k8s, where you need to do a lot of local setup anyway, requiring
a one-line option seems to be reasonable).

Hey for those of us in the peanuts gallery watching this play out.. could each of you point out which standards and RFC you are complying too. There are a lot of ones and funny enough.. they don't all agree with each other at times.
