Huh? The NetBIOS name resolution doesn't get in the way of using port
445 at all. The end result of name resolution--NBT or otherwise--is an
IP address.
Regarding the use of a DNS SRV RR... *That* I don't know. How hard would
it be to add? Also, if you have the DNS name of the W2K.DC do you need
to look up an SRV record? I don't think you do.
