That does work from a client point of view.
From a DNS administrators point of view, it's likely to cause
unnecessary updates to the zone and subsequent transfers to slave
servers. All of which is unnecessary.
I guess I've always viewed my time as being worth more. The data
being transferred is a few k, smaller than the size of one icon on my
desktop, I doubt the communications overhead is noticed in the
hailstorm of video going over the networks in question. Your Milage
May Differ.
