We're still running PowerDNS 2.x and haven't faced this change yet.
Shouldn't it be a matter of extending the records table with a column
with the URL information, and just insert the record as a normal A
record?

Your management software and the forwarding software would have to
confront the URL field, but to PowerDNS it should look like a normal
record.
