Zone include files?

Here is some useful zone file formatting if your managing a vhosting
environment.
In my named.conf I have:
include "/etc/named/zones.conf";
And my zones.conf file looks like this...
zone "4abetterlife.com" { type master; file "gojiman_4abetterlife.com.db";
allow-update { key update-key; }; };
zone "bandjletempt.com" { type master; file "bear_bandjletempt.com.db";
allow-update { key update-key; }; };
zone "bogusdomain.com" { type master; file "demo_bogusdomain.com.db";
allow-update { key update-key; }; };
zone "brileyswarehouse.net" { type master; file
"mjbriley_brileyswarehouse.net.db"; allow-update { key update-key; }; };
zone "digipanel.com" { type master; file "digipanel_digipanel.com.db";
allow-update { key update-key; }; };
zone "dns4free.us" { type master; file "mig29_dns4free.us.db"; allow-update {
key update-key; }; };
zone "dumb.com" { type master; file "dumb_dumb.com.db"; allow-update { key
update-key; }; };
etc etc...
As you can see there is one zone entry PER LINE.. that way All I have to do to
remove an entry is:
cat /etc/named/zones.conf | grep -v '^zone "dumb.com"'
Or to ADD a zone entry:
echo 'zone "new.com" { type master; file "new_new.com.db"; allow-update { key
update-key; }; };' >> /etc/named/new_zone.conf
That way named.conf is NEVER touched.
