            Bug ID: 237861
           Summary: dns/bind914 Suggestion: enable dnstap in BIND by
                    default
           Product: Ports & Packages
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: Individual Port(s)

I'd like to suggest that dnstap should be enabled by default going forward,
starting with bind914. Doing so would be a no-op for people who don't use it,
since it has to be specifically enabled in the configuration. dnstap is much
lighter weight than traditional query logging, so it benefits large and small
systems alike. I suspect there may be quite a few people like me who would
appreciate the ability to use dnstap without building our own packages and
maintaining our own repos.

This would add a dependency on devel/fstrm and devel/protobuf-c, but both
packages are tiny, and protobuf-c is a dependency of a number of other common
ports.
