Yes it does... I don't have the answer, but I would like to add something
to the question :

I also have ns3.foo.com, which for reliability reasons is hosted elsewhere
(I am smarter than Microwhatever, which is not really difficult). ns3 has
thus an 'external' IP address. Is there any hope for ns3.foo.com to be able
to zone transfer the external _and_ internal view from ns1.foo.com?

The idea is that I want to list all three servers as NS in both views,
for maximal redundancy.

Hope it still makes sense.
