These are good questions.

In addition, I would like to know whether there are plans to offer a
smart switching DNS based on service availability. For example, I would
love a service that would periodically test my web servers for signs of
life, and deliver a different response (i.e. IP of a secondary server) if
the principal one were dead. I could then set up a short (e.g. 5 minute)
TTL on the domain, etc.
