Section 3.4., paragraph 3: > By definition, a resolver that requests NSID responses also supports > EDNS, so a resolver that requests NSID responses can also use the > "sender's UDP payload size" field of the OPT pseudo-RR to signal a > receive buffer size large enough to make truncation unlikely. Even thought this may make truncation unlikely, long NSIDs may still increase the likelihood of fragmentation, with the corresponding decrease of reliability. May want to add a sentence on that here.

Section 3.1 describes eight alternatives for the payload of the nsid option. Immediately below, the text provides advantages and disadavantages for six of the eight options. No advantages or diadvantages are given for the remaining options (a digitally signed blob or an encrypted blob). I would like to see brief descriptions of the utility of these mechanisms, particularly with respect to the content of the associated plaintext.
