There's nothing in BIND to support this. Commercial DNS-management 
products have their own, proprietary ways to do this, and many folks 
roll their own solutions, using an "index" zone (i.e. a zone that 
contains just a list of zones to slave), rsync'ed "include" files, 
traversal of the internal-root namespace, or whatever...
