When I posted my first comment I was just reacting to what seemed to be imprecise wording in the article. Thanks to the head's up by kitterma, I now see that in fact the IETF DNSEXT working group is proposing LLMDR instead of mDNS. We'll see how the IESG views the debate soon.

I don't know which is better - just trying to avoid misunderstanding.
