[Pdns-users] PowerDNS does not expire domains - propagates lame delegation.

PowerDNS doesn't seem to enforce any kind of expiry of domains whose
master no longer answer authoritatively, so PowerDNS was a slave, but
should no longer be because the master it was slaving from went away,
but because it never expires the domain it continues to answer
authoritatively.

Alternatively Bind seems to note the non-authoritative answer from its
master and add the domain into a some list (neg. cache, etc.) and not
answer authoritatively for it.

Am I wrong in thinking this is a problem?
