I would be fine with just being able to read a single column text
file, nothing more complicated than that in my case, I'm thinking
about making some of the lists external so your suggestion would work
for me. The include in BIND is more general though and can outsource
anything that can be in named.conf, however in my case I don't see any
real benefit to that compared to what you suggested.
