Can you provide an example of one that you can't 'dig'? I have my doubts.

One example: I can't seem to get dig to work with URI records (but I might be missing some flag). Doing `dig URI _kerberos.hasvickygoneonholiday.com` returns "no servers could be reached" while doing `kdig URI _kerberos.hasvickygoneonholiday.com` returns the proper records.

So seems to be a proper DNS record, but I can't make it work with dig.

Plain old "dig" works for me! I suspect it may be an older version of dig you're using? This is DiG 9.11.5-P4-5.1ubuntu2.1-Ubuntu on Ubuntu 19.10 ...

Strange, but thanks for letting me know! I'm on my Ubuntu laptop now, so `DiG 9.11.3-1ubuntu1.11-Ubuntu` and it works too! But initially tried on my Arch Linux desktop, where it didn't work, and I would expect my desktop to run a more recent version than my laptop. Very strange, will take another look.
