OK, probably just waiting for a volunteer.  Maybe I'll take a look at

It would also be nice to show server dialback info, but that might be

Yes, I agree.  That reminds me that I should nag our network engineers 
about DNSSEC again.  :-)  POSH seems relatively easy for operators to 
publish; assuming the servers build support querying it.
