Updating forwarders dynamically

Hi,
I'm using OpenBSD -current with bind 9.3.0 and I receive
the nameservers from my ADSL-provider when I connect to it
using ppp. I've searched this newsgroup and have learnt
that forwarding is unneeded in my setup and I should just
use the root hints.
But still I'm curious, if there is a way to update the
"forwarders" option in the snippet of my named.conf
(s. below)dynamically, via nsupdate or maybe Net::DNS
and not through generating the named.conf file anew and
restarting the named?
I've checked the both DNS books, but couldn't find the answer yet.
Thank you
Alex
