It would also seem perfectly appropriate to provide a non-authoritative
response for that record as well. New standards are being set, no reason
why we all shouldn't follow suit.

Not that I'm advocating anything specific or anything, but it does
logically follow that if the gTLD zone is serving non-authoritative data
for say, "opensrssss.net" then there's nothing other than convention
standing in the way of other DNS operators to further monkey with
authoritative responses.
