You don't want to do this with DNS. Trust me. There are far too
many seriously screwed up nameservers out there -- including many TLD
nameservers, and even some mildly mis-configured root nameservers.
Until such time as these issues get addressed (either DNS
software gets more idiot-resistant, or we have DNSSEC and things like
cache pollution are basically impossible), you want to find other
ways to handle these sorts of things.
