Please allow me to add another point here to the excellent one Kevin
made. Remember that to BIND, reverse and forward zones are identical.
No distinction is made between the two.

I'd suppose the only reason we don't mix A/CNAME/MX/etc and PTR RRs in
what today is the "forward" zones is that we don't want to have to
traverse the entire namespace to reverse-lookup an address. Which is a
pretty darn good reason IMHO :)
