- Perform ttl consistency checking during zone listings.
- Recursive traversion of delegated zones up to a given level.
- Maintaining of resource record and host count statistics.
- Option to check reverse mappings of host addresses.
- Option to compare SOA records at the primary and secondary
nameservers of a zone to check for anomalies such as out-of-sync
serial numbers, and other discrepancies.

- Basic NSAP support according to RFC 1637.
- Implement PX/GPOS RR types as defined by RFC 1664/1712.

- Recognize AAAA RR type as defined by RFC 1884/1886.
- Support for new RR types KEY/SIG/NXT/SRV (still in draft).
- Support for RR type NAPTR. Recognize EID/NIMLOC/ATMA.
- Support for RR type KX. Recognize CERT.
- Allow multiple arguments on command line or from stdin.
