Just in case my yesterday email is useful and it was sent to the wrong list, here is it again:

As I already indicated several times, I think this is needed and agree with this document. In fact, I've included a reference to this document in RFC8683.

Just a minor point regarding the abstract. I think it should be a single paragraph, and moving most of the text to the intro (I've been told this a couple of time with my own documents).

In Section 4.1, I think could also include a reference to DNS privacy/encryption. In RFC8683 I'm calling all this "foreign DNS" (see section 4.4).

Relevant to this document see also section 4.1.1 in RFC8683 and the IANA Consideration section that I had in the version before the RFC8683:

8.  IANA Considerations

   This document does not have any new specific IANA considerations.

   Note: This section is assuming that https://www.rfc-
   editor.org/errata/eid5152 is resolved, otherwise, this section may
   include the required text to resolve the issue.

   Alternatively, this could be fixed also by
   [I-D.cheshire-sudn-ipv4only-dot-arpa].

So, may be is time to also clear the errata, indicating that it is fixed by this document?

    The IESG has received a request from an individual submitter to consider the
    following document: - 'Special Use Domain Name 'ipv4only.arpa''
      <draft-cheshire-sudn-ipv4only-dot-arpa-15.txt> as Proposed Standard
    
    The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final
    comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the
    last-call@xxxxxxxx mailing lists by 2020-02-17. Exceptionally, comments may

    Abstract
    
    
       The specification for how a client discovers its local network's
       NAT64 prefix [RFC7050] defines the special name 'ipv4only.arpa' for
       this purpose, but in its Domain Name Reservation Considerations
       section that specification indicates that the name actually has no
       particularly special properties would require special handling, and
       does not request IANA to record the name in the Special-Use Domain
       Names registry.
    
       Consequently, despite the well articulated special purpose of the
       name, 'ipv4only.arpa' was not recorded in the Special-Use Domain
       Names registry as a name with special properties.
    
       As a result of this omission, in cases where software needs to give
       this name special treatment in order for it to work correctly, there
       was no clear mandate authorizing software authors to implement that
       special treatment.  Software implementers were left with the choice
       between not implementing the special behavior necessary for the name
       queries to work correctly, or implementing the special behavior and
       being accused of being noncompliant with some RFC.
    
       This document describes the special treatment required, formally
       declares the special properties of the name, and adds similar
       declarations for the corresponding reverse mapping names.
