The answers are: yes, yes, yes, yes and yes :-)

The alpha version of pdns-server which Ubuntu included in 16.04 is 
seriously broken, especially with mysql backend. Don't use it.

Last I heard (which was the beginning of August), the pdns people were 
still working on getting at least 4.0.0 final into Xenial. In the mean 
time, you're better off using the packages which they release themselves:
