dns-ui

I'm using dns-ui to manage dns for a number of domains we control and for a number of hosting realms we don't control (including GCE and AWS).

I'm not quite sure I understand the goal of send_missing_reverse_zones_warning.

I mean, sure, it'll tell me that I haven't created a reverse zone entry. And it could remind me that I need to do that via some other means. But, I'm not really sure I want this notification, and I'm somewhat certain I want the option to not get an email notification.

Besides, I probably want the ability to see all of my entries for which I don't have reverses (filterable by something) as opposed to having to fish through emails (which may not exist, especially as I migrated from some other pdns management system).

The warning will only be given if autocreate_reverse_records is set to 1, to let you know that the auto-creation of the reverse record failed (typically to remind you that the reverse zone needs creating, with the email sent so you have a record of those records that didn't get the reverse entry added).

Besides, I probably want the ability to see all of my entries for which I don't have reverses (filterable by something) as opposed to having to fish through emails (which may not exist, especially as I migrated from some other pdns management system).

This would probably need to be a dedicated report, as it will require querying data from potentially lots of different zones.

I can split this into two requests if you require (I can easily become any project's most prolific bug reporter, I try to limit my filing to avoid that).

Note: I like the feature of autocreating for portions of space I own, so I wouldn't want to turn off the feature -- which is why I haven't.
