Why isn't this data simply available as a custom DNS record type?

Seems far simpler than a whole custom protocol.

How would that work? Would your DNS server delegate that one field out to your registrar?

  • Why does your registrar need to proxy this? How it could work is that you simply create

        owner IN TXT Max Mustermann
        email IN TXT mustermax@example.org
    

    Or some other class, so that keys can't clash (already exist), similar to how version.bind is partitioned into the chaos class
