----------
qname minimization is only meaningful with recursion. dnsmasq is default and it is consistent in behavior to OEM as sold. This makes the transition smoother for some. Its easier on bandwidth for those with poor connections. 

As a the Unbound package maintainer I am sympethetic to [your,similar] goals. This is why I have put in so much effort to add its UCI in the last months. With odhcpd you even get similar local dns behavior to dnsmasq. However this is only recent work. I still consider it a optional package. I would not expect core group acceptance of whole sale replacement for awhile.
