It seems like you are doing this in order to override (perhaps absense of) the ".org"
NS delegation of example.org to 1.1.1.1?
I wouldn't use forwarding for that.

The best method, in my opinion, is to make your recursive machine a
secondary.  That's not always possible.   A locally configured NS is what you
really want, but I don't know of a way to do that.
