It would have to read minds to do so.

I have name servers a, b, and c.  I have - for legitimate reasons - one
domain whose master is a and whose slave is b, and another whose master
is a and whose slave is c.  I have a third whose master is c and whose
slaves are a and b.

I now install a new zone.  If I make its master a, which machines
should be slaves?  How about if the master is b?  What if it's c?

Wrong.  I intended to have "d" slave to this one.  ;-)  [Unfair, there
is no d, and I made that one up.  But there could be!]
