Oh well,

I meant specifically concerning dnsdist of course.

I.e. instead of having to say

domains_1 = {
   "16.172.in-addr.arpa",
   "17.172.in-addr.arpa",
   "18.172.in-addr.arpa",
...

in order to create an ACL for reverse lookup of private IP space for 
example,
being able to somehow specify 172.16/12 in the ACE.

:)
