Your patches are good quality.  One thing I am not sure about is that
allow_minimal, with 512byte responses, does not allow the client to
use dnssec validation, because 512 is often too small to do so.  Or do
you want it to use TCP as it receives +TC replies?

Also, additional configuration options are not really good; we want to
avoid code-bloat.  If this is useful for many users, it could be
added, as the operational environment for DNS services changes.  Is
this more of an experiment (it seems now), or a necessary feature?

Best regards,
   Wouter
