You spent some time digging there. Can you add a test that'll pass 
against the MS AD DNS server for this, so we can make sure not to break 
it by accident?

I'm not sure I understand what we're trying to achieve with this patch. 
If leftover deleted dynamic records are scavenged, are they a problem?

Yes, but I doubt the existing tests really exercise these code paths, so 
this isn't really saying much. We really need specific new tests for 
specific new features, or we'll just have a lot of magic untested code 
that'll break eventually.

Cheers,
Kai
