Hi, 

I do see your point. My point here was more to point there exists some alternatives that worth being considered and might be developed in the future. I agree this might require more work than I am currently thinking of. I do not know how biased I am toward DANE, so I let you do what you think is best. 

Yours, 
Daniel

This came up before, but at this point there is no document describing
how to use DANE with email clients (an alternative/update to RFC 7817)
and I am not aware of any client implementations that use DANE
experimentally for this.

Best Regards,
