I will certainly prepare the change request and submit it to re at . 
However please understand that this is a very low priority issue. The 
first thing a resolving name server does when starting up is to use 
the addresses in the root hints file to query a root server to update 
its local cache of the root zone. It only needs to find ONE good 
address in that file to accomplish this.
