rndc flush(more-than-one)name

Arising out of today's little accident with the "de" TLD ...

Am I right in thinking that "rndc flushname de" flushes only entries for
that specific name, and not for names in the tree *under* "de"? It would
be rather useful to have the latter facility (short of flushing the whole
cache).

Of course, it would be possible to invent arbitrarily refined variants
on this theme - in this case what was wanted was "flush all negative
answers for names matching [f-z]*.de" - but maybe not very productively.
