Not true. Binary labels could have been made to work by removing
the left hand label until the remaining suffix consisted of only
RFC 1035 labels, looking up the servers for that domain, then
resuming query processing using those servers similar to what we
do with DS lookups.
Such processing would be required for any new label type used in a
QNAME and would be a significant change to the standard query logic.

Mark,
This will only work if all the recursive resolvers that "consumers" for
this new label types have been updated AND the new label type is the
left most label(s) in the name.
