Yes, you are correct, the initial conversion from static to dynamic 
needs to be handled with care. That's what testing and validation 
processes are for :-)

Once it's in place, though, any fears about nsupdate "ripple effects" 
from one rrset to another, are mostly unfounded (possible exception 
being changes to delegation records and/or glue).
