No, not really.  It's for a private cloud microservices system we're
thinking through.  We already run most/many of the various service
backends in user space so that the app devs and support folks can control
their own universe without having to constantly invoke someone with sudo
or root or firecall permissions.   Because of very strict audit and
regulatory constraints, there is zero chance they'll ever get root/sudo
access to the DNS config, so running our private DNS just for this
subset of private client/cloud users may make sense.

I really appreciate everyone jumping in to help with this.
