 And the latest plan based on the email and call discussions are:

 Change the type and semantics of the use_ixfr option (or even rename
 it).  Its argument will now be a string, with the possible values of:

 - "axfr-only" (it never tries IXFR)
 - "ixfr-only" (it basically never tries AXFR.  but in this case it'd
   still use AXFR when there's no "current" version of the zone)
 - "ixfr-first" (default.  try IXFR as long as there's a "current"
   version, and fall back to AXFR if it fails)

 And document the configuration change clearly.
