The only way to get DNS entries in is by replicating an existing
Microsoft DNS server. 

Anyway, the reason there isn't any documentation is that it's not really
finished.  We got it to the point where we were able to show that
BIND9.8 when released would do what we want, when we are loaded with the
dlopen dlz plugin.  That was an important milestone, as it is more
difficult to get a new BIND version to Samba4 users than an updated
plugin.
