I think Benjamin might have ment something more like the object of the
query, i.e. looking at ip address returned in an A RR. However, I think
Benjamin would realize, after thinking it over, that this method would not
work for quiries for SOA, TXT, and other RR's who's RDATA is not a
"destination"...
