I'd object to it.  Trading one for another without gaining anything does
not help us much.


Don't get me wrong I have both running for years and even maintain patches
for unbound for 2 years now for functionality they do not provide, which
named happily gives me.

If you want to do this, I would prefer a properly laid out action plan
as the import is by far the easiest but the integration into various
parts of the system is harder.
