Given, 

* that we're in DNSEXT, 

* that there exists a large (according to themselves) body of
  people/organisations that are unaware/unable of proper DNS 
  operation and standards,

Yes. There is, because there must be, a continous effort to channel and
guide the lemming population to the proper cliff. The current thread
can be viewed as a tactical operation in the overall strategy.

The document that trigged this is indeed relevant, because it is an
especially clear case of the ignorance that threatens DNS.
