Right.  As far as the DD is concerned, http-proxy.my.domain.com is a
subdomain, and it is being delegated to the DD.  Don't set up zone transfer,
set up the SOA RR on the DD as auth. for http-proxy.my.domain.com, then set up
several A records corresponding to the various http-proxy you have.  DD will
do the rest.
